Repairing versus replacing in Fancott
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Fancott, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Fancott and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
