What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Your questions about shower tray repair in East Cambridgeshire
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes East Cambridgeshire. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
