Shower tray repair in Old Town without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Our technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and a cracked shower tray.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

When we would advise against a repair

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Old Town
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Old Town. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Old Town get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely 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.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Common problems we fix in Old Town
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A crack across the base
- Movement when you stand on it
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price covers travel
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to care for the finish
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
