What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

How we handle shower tray repair in Chorlton-on-Medlock

Every job is backed for twelve months in Chorlton-on-Medlock and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
