Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Cleator questions
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
