Shower tray repair at your home in Daw's House
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include cracks running from the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
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.

What affects the price in Daw's House
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Daw's House
Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Common reasons people in Daw's House contact us are:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
