DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Questions from Mill End
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Mill End?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Mill End. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Mill End. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
