Shower tray repair at your home in Ruardean
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Typical jobs include a crack across the base and edge chips from dropped bottles, on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When to call us in Ruardean
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Movement when you stand on it
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste
- A crack across the base
Questions to ask before you book
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price covers travel
- What prep work is covered
- Aftercare advice
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ruardean
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

- The material, if you know it

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Ruardean: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
