DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole shower tray
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

FAQs for St Marychurch
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can pets and children be at home?
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.
How long does it take to cure?
Typically the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Landlord and trade work in St Marychurch
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us photos 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.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
