When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Check the seal every few months
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
