About our shower tray repair in Croydon

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that flexes.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Croydon

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Croydon is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Croydon

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What happens on the day

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 for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
