About our shower tray repair in Graveley
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We’re frequently asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and chips on the edges, in stone resin, cast iron and ceramic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Graveley. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Questions from Graveley
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit

Related advice
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.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use the extractor fan
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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 DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
