How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of 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.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Shower tray repair at your home in Timber Bush
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and a dull, stained or worn surface.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Timber Bush
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Timber Bush?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
When to call us in Timber Bush
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage around the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to care for the finish
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Timber Bush, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
