Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Plains
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Plains?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Do you need shower tray repair in Plains?
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A cracked shower tray
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage around the waste
- Chips on the edges
Before booking anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- What prep work is covered
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
For a price in Plains, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Related advice
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Get a moving tray checked
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Plains. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Plains. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
