DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we’re called out for in Shide
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Comparing quotes
- How to look after the finish
- Who turns up on the day
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Shide. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
Most clients in Shide get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Shide questions
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
For anyone letting property in or around Shide, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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 whole tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
