Shower tray repair in Elsing without replacing anything
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are scratches from cleaning or grit and a cracked shower tray.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
Most clients in Elsing get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Elsing
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A cracked shower tray
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Elsing
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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Common questions in Elsing
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Are there extra charges for Elsing?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
