Shower tray repair in Hart Station without replacing anything
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with movement when you stand on it and scuffs and light scratches, we can normally put it right, on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for Hart Station
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
