What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Common questions in Fishponds
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
