Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Thamesmead: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally the day after. We will confirm before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Thamesmead. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
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 will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Common problems we fix in Thamesmead
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Look out for any of the following:
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that flexes

- Chips on the edges
Questions to ask before you book

- Who will actually do the work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How long it needs to cure

- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage

Work for landlords and builders
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 work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thamesmead as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
