Repairing versus replacing in Licswm
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

FAQs for Licswm
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Licswm, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Licswm. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
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 heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
