How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Keyston: your questions answered

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Cambridgeshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How long does it take to cure?

Usually the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Same prices wherever you are

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Keyston use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
