Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
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. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Shower tray repair in Salem without replacing anything

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What we are called out for in Salem
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A crack across the base
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
- A dull, stained or worn surface

Landlords, agents and businesses in Salem
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colour-matched on site

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
