Shower tray repair in Chinbrook without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s a crack across the base and damage around the waste, we can help, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Chinbrook: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you come to Chinbrook?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Chinbrook and the rest of Greater London. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you’re in Chinbrook and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common problems we fix in Chinbrook
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scratches in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
- Who will actually do the work
- How the room is protected while they work
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
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.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Landlord and trade work in Chinbrook
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
