What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves 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 the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Haywards Heath questions
Do you cover Haywards Heath?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Haywards Heath. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?
We cover the entire UK, including Haywards Heath and the rest of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Get a moving tray checked
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot 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.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Haywards Heath as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
