DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Common questions in Shirwell Cross
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Shirwell Cross?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Are there extra charges for Shirwell Cross?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shirwell Cross. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
- Fixed prices from your pictures
