How we handle shower tray repair in Eling
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. We’re frequently asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and scuffs and light scratches, in enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Other services in Eling
Eling: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What we are called out for in Eling
Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Damage around the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A crack across the base
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
What affects the price in Eling
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Eling
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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, generally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
