How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use the extractor fan
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Hangingbridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hangingbridge. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
