What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Crossgates. The price reflects:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron

Crossgates questions
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you cover Crossgates?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Crossgates from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

What else we do in Crossgates
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
