Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Egford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Egford
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you cover Egford?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Egford. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What we’re called out for in Egford
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scratches in the surface
- A crack across the base
- Chipped corners or rims
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
