DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- We leave the room as we found it

Common questions in Kingholm Quay
Do you cover Kingholm Quay?

How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole 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, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
If you’re in Kingholm Quay and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
