What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Merton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Merton

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OX25 postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

When to call us in Merton

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that flexes
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace in Merton?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place

See our prices page.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
