Shower tray repair in Beechwood, done in place
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that flexes.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Beechwood as everywhere else we work.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Common problems we fix in Beechwood
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
