Repair or replace in Barling?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Shower tray repair in Barling without replacing anything
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about a tray that flexes and a dull, stained or worn surface.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Barling. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Questions from Barling
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Barling.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SS3 postcode.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Southend-on-Sea and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
Signs you need shower tray repair in Barling
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Look out for these signs:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A crack across the base
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chipped corners or rims
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
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 over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
