How we handle shower tray repair in Hamstead
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and damage around the waste, in cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Hamstead
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Hamstead is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Hamstead?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Repairing versus replacing in Hamstead

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hamstead as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
What affects the price in Hamstead
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hamstead. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PO41 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
