Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Common questions in Ruan Minor
How long does it take to cure?
We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the day after.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Ruan Minor. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Ruan Minor?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ruan Minor. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Ruan Minor, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Ruan Minor
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Look out for any of the following:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A crack across the base
- A tray that flexes
- Scuffs and light scratches

Landlord and trade work in Ruan Minor
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
