Shower tray repair at your home in Greenwich
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We are frequently asked to fix edge chips from dropped bottles and chips caused during fitting, on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

What we work on
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Greenwich: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Do you come to Greenwich?
We do. We send a technician to Greenwich for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What affects the price in Greenwich
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Greenwich, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Greenwich
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
