Shower tray repair in Turnford without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. We work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are movement when you stand on it and scratches in the surface.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you’re in Turnford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Turnford
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we are called out for in Turnford
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scuffs and light scratches

Turnford questions
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you cover Turnford?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Turnford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish.

What else we do in Turnford
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
