What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Oare. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Most customers in Oare get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Oare: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
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.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
When to call us in Oare
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips on the edges
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
