How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Kelvindale?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Kelvindale.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Do you need shower tray repair in Kelvindale?
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Common reasons people in Kelvindale contact us include:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A crack across the base

Repairing versus replacing in Kelvindale
Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
