For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire shower tray
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic

Do you need shower tray repair in Cargate Common?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that flexes
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage around the waste

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
