Your questions about shower tray repair in Chaulden
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.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you cover Chaulden?
We do. Technicians travel to Chaulden from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
About our shower tray repair in Chaulden
A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and people most often call us about damage from a refit or building work and chipped corners or rims.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What affects the price in Chaulden
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Chaulden. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
