Shower tray repair in Purley on Thames, 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 repair lasts. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are damage around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Purley on Thames questions
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Purley on Thames?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
What affects the price in Purley on Thames
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Purley on Thames. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we are called out for in Purley on Thames
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Movement when you stand on it
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
- Aftercare advice
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Repairing versus replacing in Purley on Thames
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
