How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Longsight. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Longsight get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What else we do in Longsight
Do you need shower tray repair in Longsight?
Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that flexes
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Who turns up on the day
- What prep work is covered
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, 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.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Questions from Longsight
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
