Fixed-price shower tray repair in Herongate and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks running from the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Shower tray repair in Herongate, done in place
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from cleaning or grit and damage around the waste.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Herongate and across Essex.

What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place

Landlord and trade work in Herongate
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Herongate use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Herongate, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
