How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Common questions in Waldringfield Heath
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
