What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Landlord and trade work in Latchford
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Latchford. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Latchford
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A tray that flexes
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Comparing quotes

- If travel is included in the price

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
