What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Kingston Bagpuize. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Kingston Bagpuize, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

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

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Do you need shower tray repair in Kingston Bagpuize?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble 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 many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
