What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Shower tray repair in Temple, done in place
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. Common call-outs are for scuffs and light scratches and cracks running from the waste, on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Common questions in Temple
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Landlord and trade work in Temple
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Temple
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Movement when you stand on it
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
