Should you replace it?

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
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 Chilton Trinity
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chipped corners or rims
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
