What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Shower tray repair in Fatfield, done in place
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. If you’re dealing with edge chips from dropped bottles and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can typically put it right, on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
FAQs for Fatfield
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Are there extra charges for Fatfield?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
