About our shower tray repair in Gun Hill
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged area around the waste and a cracked shower tray.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Gun Hill
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Gun Hill
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No extra charge for your area
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Everything repaired in place

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

When to call us in Gun Hill
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips on the edges
- Damage around the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who will actually do the work
- How the room is protected while they work
- What preparation is included
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
