Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Egloskerry, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Questions from Egloskerry
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Typically, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Other services in Egloskerry
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
