Why repair rather than replace?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newmills

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Common problems we fix in Newmills

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Newmills

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Newmills, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Newmills

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How long does it take to cure?

Generally the next day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
