Shower tray repair in Blackney without replacing anything
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Blackney, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Blackney questions
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
How long does it take to cure?
Usually the next day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Repairing versus replacing in Blackney
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
