Landlord and trade work in Far Cotton
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.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Shower tray repair in Far Cotton without replacing anything

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
