Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Hook End questions
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
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 will tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Landlord and trade work in Hook End
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often 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 we cannot put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole 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 whole tray.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
