How we handle shower tray repair in Elstree
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. We work on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are chips or cracks by the plughole and damage from a refit or building work.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- 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 children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
