How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Rufforth
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When to call us in Rufforth
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface

Questions from Rufforth
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Rufforth and the rest of York. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work in Rufforth?
We do. Technicians travel to Rufforth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
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. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
