How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Barony

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Questions from The Barony

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

When can I use the shower again?

Generally the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
