How we handle shower tray repair in Buxted
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Buxted, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Buxted questions
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Buxted?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you need shower tray repair in Buxted?
Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- How changes to the job are handled
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How to care for the finish
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Repair or replace in Buxted?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
