Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Chafford Hundred: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Chafford Hundred?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Are there extra charges for Chafford Hundred?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Chafford Hundred. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Chafford Hundred, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs 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 quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
