Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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 clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
When to call us in Little Wigborough
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A cracked shower tray
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
