About our shower tray repair in West Quantoxhead
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about chipped corners or rims and scratches from cleaning or grit.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for West Quantoxhead. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode

West Quantoxhead questions
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TA4 postcode.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in West Quantoxhead
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise 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.

When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair

- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
