What else we do in Friston
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we are called out for in Friston
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Movement when you stand on it
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Before you book anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Friston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Questions from Friston
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you cover Friston?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Friston. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Friston, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
