Shower Tray Repair for Loxwood homes
Fixed-price shower tray repair in Loxwood and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Repairs by material
Stone resin

Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Loxwood: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
