About our shower tray repair in Trolliloes
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We are frequently asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and a crack across the base, in ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Trolliloes
Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Common reasons people in Trolliloes contact us include:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips on the edges
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- How your room will be protected
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Most jobs done in one visit

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

The process
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 job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Trolliloes. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire shower tray
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
