Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Aston, Hertfordshire
Damaged shower tray in Aston? We put it right where it is, match it on site and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scuffs and light scratches
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Shower tray repair in Aston without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and a tray that flexes.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice
Common problems we fix in Aston
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Look out for any of the following:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
Before booking anyone
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
- What aftercare is recommended
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Check the seal every few months
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Aston: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee?

How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can I use the shower again?
Typically the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Aston and the rest of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
