Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is typically 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Do you need shower tray repair in Childwick Green?
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

- A cracked shower tray
- Scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
