Shower tray repair at your home in Jacobs Well
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We are frequently asked to fix a damaged area around the waste and staining and dullness across the tray, across cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What else we do in Jacobs Well
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Jacobs Well as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What affects the price in Jacobs Well
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repairing versus replacing in Jacobs Well
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Common questions in Jacobs Well
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you cover Jacobs Well?
We do. Technicians travel to Jacobs Well from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t 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 colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
