What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cathedral Quarter. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cathedral Quarter
For anyone letting property in or around Cathedral Quarter, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common questions in Cathedral Quarter
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Cathedral Quarter?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your S1 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What we’re called out for in Cathedral Quarter
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:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A cracked shower tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
