Different materials, different repairs
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-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Questions from Elveden
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you work in Elveden?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Elveden. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Elveden. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Elveden
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What we are called out for in Elveden
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chipped corners or rims
- A damaged area around the waste
