What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Shower tray repair in Thorne, done in place
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Doncaster.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Thorne questions
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
