How we handle shower tray repair in Elmdon
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. We work on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from cleaning or grit and a cracked shower tray.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Elmdon and across Essex.

Questions from Elmdon
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Elmdon and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Elmdon. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Elmdon, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Work done at your home or business
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Elmdon
If you manage property in Elmdon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When to call us in Elmdon
Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A crack across the base
- Damage around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chips on the edges
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who will actually do the work
- Aftercare advice
- What preparation is included
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
