What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Lodsworth. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Questions from Lodsworth
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you come to Lodsworth?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lodsworth. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

When to call us in Lodsworth
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Look out for these signs:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Different materials, different repairs
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 is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
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’ll reply with a fixed price.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Should you replace it?
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. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
