Shower Tray Repair for Aldwych homes
Shower tray repair in and around Aldwych: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks running from the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses 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.

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. If you are dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and cracks running from the waste, we can typically put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What else we do in Aldwych
What affects the price in Aldwych
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Repairing versus replacing in Aldwych
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour mixed on the day to match

What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place

What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
Repairs by material
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. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Aldwych: your questions answered
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you cover Aldwych?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Aldwych. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
