Shower tray repair at your home in Dallinghoo
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and people most often call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and edge chips from dropped bottles.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repair or replace in Dallinghoo?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Dallinghoo, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
