Shower tray repair at your home in Charltons
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 work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and scratches in the surface.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. 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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Charltons
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Common questions in Charltons
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Are there extra charges for Charltons?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
