What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bayford. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Repair or replace in Bayford?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

FAQs for Bayford
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do you come to Bayford?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bayford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Bayford is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What else we do in Bayford
How it works
On the day, 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 the day to resurface the whole tray. 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 day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
