Repairing versus replacing in Hadley Wood
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hadley Wood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we handle shower tray repair in Hadley Wood
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that flexes.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage

What else we do in Hadley Wood
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
