Repairing versus replacing in Cassington

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Our hiring checklist

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cassington. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

FAQs for Cassington

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
