Shower tray repair at your home in Idbury
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Idbury as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Idbury customers choose us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Most jobs done in one visit
