Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
About our shower tray repair in Bucks Hill
We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are a damaged area around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bucks Hill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Bucks Hill
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
How long does it take to cure?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the following day.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain 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.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bucks Hill
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
