What else we do in Derringstone
Do you need shower tray repair in Derringstone?
Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Cracks running from the waste

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- A fixed quote before booking

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Derringstone. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
