Shower tray repair in Chawton, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with damage around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Chawton as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
FAQs for Chawton
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Chawton.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chawton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Chawton. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When to call us in Chawton
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that flexes
- A crack across the base
- Chips caused during fitting

- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Get a moving tray checked
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repairing versus replacing in Chawton
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When we’d advise against a repair

- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
