Datchworth questions
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Hertfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you work in Datchworth?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Datchworth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Repair or replace in Datchworth?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Datchworth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Do you need shower tray repair in Datchworth?

- Movement when you stand on it
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips on the edges
- Chips caused during fitting
Questions to ask before you book
- Aftercare advice

- Whether a trained technician does the job

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
We price from photos so you don’t 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.
