Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Elmswell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. 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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Do you need shower tray repair in Elmswell?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Cracks running from the waste

How long does it take to cure?

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Store bottles off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
