How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Ely. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Ely, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Ely questions
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do you cover Ely?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ely. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ely as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
When to call us in Ely
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A crack across the base
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips caused during fitting
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- How your room will be protected
- What preparation is included
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
How the visit works
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, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. 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.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire 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, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
