Shower tray repair at your home in Great Gaddesden
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and chips caused during fitting.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Report any creaking or movement early
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Do you need shower tray repair in Great Gaddesden?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
