What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Dockeney, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
About our shower tray repair in Dockeney
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with chips caused during fitting and scuffs and light scratches, we can generally put it right, on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Dockeney as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Your questions about shower tray repair in Dockeney
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Dockeney.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Dockeney, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Repairs by material
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

- Damage around the waste
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
