How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Store bottles off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
