DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Common questions in Shewalton
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Shewalton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Shewalton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are there extra charges for Shewalton?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Landlord and trade work in Shewalton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shewalton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

- Damage around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
