DIY kit or professional repair?
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 frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Marden Thorn
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Marden Thorn. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

FAQs for Marden Thorn
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What information do you need?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Will there be a smell?

Do you cover Marden Thorn?

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
