Shower Tray Repair for Braughing homes
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing for homes and businesses in Braughing and across Hertfordshire. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Repairs from £95
- Movement when you stand on it
- A crack across the base
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Shower tray repair in Braughing, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you’re dealing with chipped corners or rims and scratches in the surface, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Questions from Braughing
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the next day.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
