Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Older homes around Magdalen Laver may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.
Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Magdalen Laver. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

- A tray that flexes
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
