Shower tray repair in Bosham without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and chips or cracks by the plughole.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Bosham
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What your shower tray is made of matters
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Bosham questions
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Bosham?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PO18 postcode.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. The price 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 you know the cost before you book.

What else we do in Bosham
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Check the seal every few months
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
