How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How much damage there is
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole shower tray
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Shower tray repair in Leavesden without replacing anything
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are damage around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
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.
FAQs for Leavesden
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
What else we do in Leavesden
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace in Leavesden?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
