Shower tray repair in Ufford without replacing anything
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 crack does not come back. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about chipped corners or rims and a dull, stained or worn surface.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ufford as everywhere else we work.

Ufford questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ufford use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Get a moving tray checked
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Ufford
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
