Shower tray repair in Frithsden without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, stained or worn surface and movement when you stand on it.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Frithsden and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Questions from Frithsden
How long does it take to cure?
Usually the next day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
