About our shower tray repair in Alverstone Garden Village
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. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped corners or rims and a dull, stained or worn surface, in acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.
Homes around Alverstone Garden Village often have showers added to older buildings, and we always check the tray’s support first.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare. Somewhere as small as Alverstone Garden Village, access is normally the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Will you travel to Alverstone Garden Village?
We do: small places like Alverstone Garden Village are covered as standard. Just mention any tricky access.
Can you fix shower trays in a rental near Sandown station?
Yes. Send pictures and the address, and we will quote, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Repair or replace in Alverstone Garden Village?
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. A repair is one visit. In an older home in a village like Alverstone Garden Village, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use the extractor fan
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
