Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Landlord and trade work in Gaddesby
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage around the waste
- Chips on the edges

- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: 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.
