What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
About our shower tray repair in Portskerra
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are scratches from cleaning or grit and a dull, stained or worn surface.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
