Shower tray repair in Cridling Stubbs, done in place

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include cracks running from the waste and chipped corners or rims, in cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What affects the price in Cridling Stubbs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cridling Stubbs. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Read our pricing.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

How to compare quotes

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
