How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Temple Bar
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
Common reasons people in Temple Bar contact us include:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A crack across the base
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scratches in the surface

Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Temple Bar. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in Temple Bar?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Temple Bar: your questions answered
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long does it take to cure?
Typically the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
