How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

FAQs for Putsborough

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Putsborough?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX33 postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Putsborough is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Putsborough, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Putsborough use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
