DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Shower tray repair at your home in Dorley's Corner

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include a cracked shower tray and chips on the edges, across stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Stained shower tray resurfaced to clean white, before and after

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

First, we check whether the tray moves.
We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

Let us know about parking or access
Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dorley's Corner. The price reflects:

What kind of damage it is
Access to the area
The colour and finish to match
The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

One picture of the entire shower tray
One sharp close-up of the damage
Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

Stick to gentle cleaners
Check the seal every few months
Rinse away soap after showering
Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Should you replace it?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Dorley's Corner. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
