What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Shower tray repair in Hickling Pastures without replacing anything
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and scratches from cleaning or grit, in acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hickling Pastures
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Questions from Hickling Pastures
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Do you need shower tray repair in Hickling Pastures?
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Common reasons people in Hickling Pastures contact us include:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
