The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Signs you need shower tray repair in Elmhurst
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips on the edges
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
Landlords, agents and businesses in Elmhurst
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Elmhurst, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
