How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Hawarden and the rest of Flintshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hawarden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
