What else we do in Riccarton
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
When to call us in Riccarton
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A crack across the base

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
