Shower tray repair in Chapmore End, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with chips caused during fitting and damage around the waste, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
FAQs for Chapmore End
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What affects the price in Chapmore End
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chapmore End. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we are called out for in Chapmore End
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Look out for any of the following:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that flexes
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- What prep work is covered
