Shower tray repair at your home in Hastings Hill
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Typical jobs include edge chips from dropped bottles and a crack across the base, on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can

Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
