Shower tray repair in Rippingale, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches in the surface.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Rippingale. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Ventilate the room after showers
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Rippingale

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

FAQs for Rippingale
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do you come to Rippingale?
We do. Technicians travel to Rippingale from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Should you replace it?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
