Shower tray repair in Hamsey without replacing anything
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Our technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about chipped corners or rims and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
In a village like Hamsey, showers are frequently later additions to older homes, so we check how the tray is supported before repairing.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on. Somewhere like Hamsey needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Hamsey: your questions answered
Can you repair shower trays at a school or business in Hamsey?
Yes, we work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, and our accreditations include CHAS and Constructionline. Send photos and details of the building.
I let a flat near Cooksbridge station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, landlords and agents book us regularly, and a repair between tenants is usually quicker than replacing.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you come to Hamsey?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hamsey and the rest of East Sussex. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Hamsey.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on

Do you need shower tray repair in Hamsey?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Cracks running from the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
If you manage a building such as Hamsey Community Primary School, we repair changing-room showers as well as work in homes.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Should you replace it?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Replacement in Hamsey means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Work done at your home or business
See our Prices page.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What else we do in Hamsey
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
