What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we’re called out for in Drumnadrochit

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A crack across the base
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Get a moving tray checked

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

FAQs for Drumnadrochit

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Landlord and trade work in Drumnadrochit

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
