Shower tray repair in Epping, done in place
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We are frequently asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and a cracked shower tray, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

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 doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Epping, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Epping questions
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
How long before I can shower?
Normally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What else we do in Epping
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
Most customers in Epping get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we are called out for in Epping
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Cracks running from the waste
- Movement when you stand on it
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No extra charge for your area
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
