Shower tray repair at your home in Foston
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and a crack across the base, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Other services in Foston
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Foston use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Foston get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We leave the room as we found it
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colour-matched on site

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
