Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tankersley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Most customers in Tankersley get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Common questions in Tankersley
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover Tankersley?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Tankersley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Are there extra charges for Tankersley?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin

Do you need shower tray repair in Tankersley?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
