About our shower tray repair in Thorney Hill
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with chips on the edges and damage around the waste, we can help, on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:

- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- 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 clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Thorney Hill get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
When to call us in Thorney Hill

What your quote should include

Thorney Hill questions
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
