About our shower tray repair in Cadle
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We are often asked to fix damage around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, 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 the curing time and the aftercare.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What we are called out for in Cadle
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that flexes
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- How soon you can use it again
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant 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 cannot see.
Questions from Cadle
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Swansea. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- A fixed quote before booking
- One price list for the entire UK
- No need to remove anything
