Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ridgeway. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we handle shower tray repair in Ridgeway
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We’re often asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and chips caused during fitting, on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron.
In a village like Ridgeway, many shower trays are in cottages and barn conversions, where timber floors can move. A crack is only repaired once we know the tray is firm.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
