How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
If you’re in Stow cum Quy and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
