About our shower tray repair in Wheathampstead
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a crack across the base, we can generally put it right.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Repairing versus replacing in Wheathampstead

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Landlord and trade work in Wheathampstead
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common questions in Wheathampstead
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you cover Wheathampstead?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wheathampstead and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
