For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
