How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How we handle shower tray repair in Seafield
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from cleaning or grit and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Nothing taken out or refitted

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
