How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What else we do in Playford
Repairing versus replacing in Playford
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price 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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Typically one visit, start to finish

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Playford
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Playford: your questions answered
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day, typically the day after.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you need shower tray repair in Playford?
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
