How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole shower tray
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
We price from pictures 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 will come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace in Newbiggin?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
