Shower Tray Repair for Eggbuckland homes
Shower tray repair in Eggbuckland without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Repairs from £95
- Chipped corners or rims
- A damaged area around the waste
Common problems we fix in Eggbuckland
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chipped corners or rims
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Shower tray repair at your home in Eggbuckland
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. Common call-outs are for a damaged area around the waste and chips on the edges, on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What else we do in Eggbuckland
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Eggbuckland. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have 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 let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- 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
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Do you do work for letting agents?

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Work for landlords and builders
