If you manage property in Fairfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Shower tray repair in Fairfield, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s a tray that flexes and chipped corners or rims, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 often lifts.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally 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 make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Fairfield questions
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Fairfield.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
