How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A few things move the price: 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.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Advice

When to call us in Knucklas

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Before booking anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
