DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
About our shower tray repair in West End
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. We’re often asked to fix damage around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel.
Every job is backed for twelve months in West End and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.

The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for West End. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Get a moving tray checked
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What we are called out for in West End
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Look out for any of the following:
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips caused during fitting
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Movement when you stand on it

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
FAQs for West End
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
