How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You don’t 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 reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Older homes around Low Newton-by-the-Sea may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. A repair keeps the original.

Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

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

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Our hiring checklist

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it. Somewhere as small as Low Newton-by-the-Sea, access is normally the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
