Repair or replace in Knutton?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Common problems we fix in Knutton
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that flexes
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- How changes to the job are handled
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Knutton questions
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are there extra charges for Knutton?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you cover Knutton?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Knutton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
The process
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. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the area is dry

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
