Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Cross Gate questions
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the day after.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
When to call us in Cross Gate
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Damage around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
