How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Lower East Carleton. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us

- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
