Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
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, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- 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 typically be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
