About our shower tray repair in Ospringe
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How many areas need work
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace in Ospringe?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
