About our shower tray repair in Upper College
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. We are frequently asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and cracks running from the waste, across stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Upper College?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
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 won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Upper College. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
