Questions from Claygate
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Claygate?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Claygate. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Claygate as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray

What we work on
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairs by material
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.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Claygate
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
