DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Shower tray repair in Terling, done in place
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and a dull, stained or worn surface.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What else we do in Terling
Repairing versus replacing in Terling
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Terling. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you’re in Terling and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Common problems we fix in Terling
Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips caused during fitting
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
