Shower Tray Repair for Babell homes
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing in Babell, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A crack across the base
- Chipped corners or rims
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

FAQs for Babell
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Babell

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Same prices wherever you are
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find 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.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What affects the price in Babell
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Babell. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
