What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
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’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Gilbertstone
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Common reasons people in Gilbertstone contact us are:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage around the waste
- A crack across the base
What your quote should include

- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Repairing versus replacing in Gilbertstone
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
