Should you replace it?
A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use the extractor fan
- Check the seal every few months
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Ivegill
Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?
We cover the entire UK, including Ivegill and the rest of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

What affects the price in Ivegill
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What else we do in Ivegill
What we do, step by step
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. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
