Shower tray repair in Henwood without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from a refit or building work and scratches in the surface.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Henwood questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray

Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
