When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Repairing versus replacing in Chelsham
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chelsham as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CR6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.
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.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
