Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Chadwell Heath: your questions answered
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Chadwell Heath?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
What affects the price in Chadwell Heath
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your RM6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
