Shower tray repair in Thrupp without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and damage around the waste.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Thrupp
Thrupp: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

If you manage property in Thrupp, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thrupp as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Repair or replace in Thrupp?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- Ceramic
- Stone resin
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
Most customers in Thrupp get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
