Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Work done at your home or business
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Great Bromley. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Great Bromley, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Bromley
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When to call us in Great Bromley
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

- Chipped corners or rims
- Movement when you stand on it
- A dull, stained or worn surface
