Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Repairing versus replacing in Auckland Park
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Auckland Park. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why Auckland Park customers choose us

When to call us in Auckland Park
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches in the surface
- A damaged area around the waste
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What affects the price in Auckland Park
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
