Repair or replace in East Drayton?
A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for East Drayton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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’s fine. 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.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Common problems we fix in East Drayton

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
