Shower Tray Repair for Firth homes
Shower tray repair in and around Firth: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Firth
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Firth. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
What else we do in Firth
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your ZE2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Firth

The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A tray that flexes
- Cracks running from the waste

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
