Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
About our shower tray repair in Doddinghurst Common
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked shower tray and scratches in the surface.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Doddinghurst Common as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace in Doddinghurst Common?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Doddinghurst Common. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Doddinghurst Common questions
Are there extra charges for Doddinghurst Common?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Doddinghurst Common?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
