Shower tray repair at your home in Waterside
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and edge chips from dropped bottles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Waterside as everywhere else we work.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One visit for most repairs
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Waterside. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

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. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
