Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Filching, East Sussex
We travel to Filching for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Scratches in the surface
- A damaged area around the waste
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repair or replace in Filching?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we’re called out for in Filching
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage from a refit or building work
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
