Shower tray repair in Plaidy, done in place
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that flexes.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Plaidy. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Common questions in Plaidy
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Plaidy, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Repairing versus replacing in Plaidy
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
