Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and chips on the edges, we can typically put it right, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Choosing a repair company

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The material, if you know it

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
