Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Same prices wherever you are

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
