The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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 reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
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 will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Rivenhall End: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
What areas do you cover?
