How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

When we’d advise against a repair

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel

What we are called out for in West Lindsey

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A crack across the base
  • Chipped corners or rims

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before you book

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

For landlords and businesses

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.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
