Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Get a moving tray checked
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Can I fix it myself?
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 frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Easthorpe
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

FAQs for Easthorpe
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Essex. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you work in Easthorpe?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Easthorpe. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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 are filled and matched to the surface.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CO5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
