Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Redmile. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Redmile
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Redmile. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NG13 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Report any creaking or movement early
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 or gets worse.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
