Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Burton-by-Lincoln. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse away soap after showering
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Burton-by-Lincoln questions
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Which areas do you work in?

Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What we are called out for in Burton-by-Lincoln
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Chips on the edges
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
