Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Southdown. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Southdown, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Do you need shower tray repair in Southdown?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chipped corners or rims
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- What prep work is covered
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Southdown questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Southdown included. Travel is included in the price.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Normally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
