Shower Tray Repair for Chalk Farm homes
We travel to Chalk Farm for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A crack across the base
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Shower tray repair in Chalk Farm, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. We work on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common problems we fix in Chalk Farm
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
- How to care for the finish

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re 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.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron

Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NW5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
