About our shower tray repair in East Ilsley
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in East Ilsley as everywhere else we work.

- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Repair or replace in East Ilsley?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for East Ilsley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why East Ilsley clients choose us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
See our prices page.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Signs you need shower tray repair in East Ilsley
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
Comparing quotes
- Aftercare advice
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the colour is matched
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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.
What else we do in East Ilsley
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
