How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Mowshurst

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Common problems we fix in Mowshurst

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Mowshurst: your questions answered

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover Mowshurst?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Mowshurst. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
