What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Overpool. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

About our shower tray repair in Overpool

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that flexes, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Overpool

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

FAQs for Overpool

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

What areas do you cover?

All of Cheshire West and Chester, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cheshire West and Chester.

Landlord and trade work in Overpool

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

You don’t 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
