Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we’re called out for in Erriottwood
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A tray that flexes
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A crack across the base
- A damaged area around the waste

Common questions in Erriottwood
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
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.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
