There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Shower tray repair in Forest Hill without replacing anything
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped corners or rims and staining and dullness across the tray.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step
On the day, 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, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price

Your questions about shower tray repair in Forest Hill

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you cover Forest Hill?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Forest Hill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Forest Hill?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair several things at once?

How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, generally the following day.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
When to call us in Forest Hill
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A damaged area around the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray
Comparing quotes
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Other services in Forest Hill
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Forest Hill
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
- One-year guarantee on every repair
