The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

St Margarets questions
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, typically the following day.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you come to St Margarets?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to St Margarets. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
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.
