How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Vanbrugh Park Estate. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Vanbrugh Park Estate, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Landlord and trade work in Vanbrugh Park Estate
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
