Shower tray repair in Ashtead without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include a dull, stained or worn surface and scuffs and light scratches, in acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ashtead and across Surrey.

What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Ashtead
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we’re called out for in Ashtead
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, usually along the edges or by the waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
- How soon you can use it again
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
