How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not 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 reply with a fixed quote.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Normanton

Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Damage around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches in the surface

  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Honest limits

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

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Your questions about shower tray repair in Normanton

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Are there extra charges for Normanton?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
