Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Questions from Great Bricett

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
