About our shower tray repair in Brightling
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We’re often asked to fix damage around the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Brightling
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Chips on the edges
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Damage around the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What prep work is covered
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
