How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Southcote. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Southcote. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Southcote
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Southcote
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
