What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole shower tray
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Newbigging, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Newbigging: your questions answered
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you cover the whole of South Lanarkshire?
Across the UK, so Newbigging is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Should you replace it?
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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Newbigging
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
