How we handle shower tray repair in Chingford Hatch
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are scratches from cleaning or grit and chips on the edges.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

FAQs for Chingford Hatch
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Chingford Hatch and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chingford Hatch. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Chingford Hatch, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Chingford Hatch
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Common reasons people in Chingford Hatch contact us include:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chipped corners or rims
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage around the waste

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
