How we handle shower tray repair in Chicksands
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and chips or cracks by the plughole.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Landlord and trade work in Chicksands
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Repairing versus replacing in Chicksands
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- A fixed quote before booking
- Same prices wherever you are

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Check the seal every few months
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire shower tray
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
