About our shower tray repair in Highbury
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about damage from a refit or building work and movement when you stand on it.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Highbury
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Highbury. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour-matched on site
- Work done at your home or business

Do you need shower tray repair in Highbury?
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- A cracked shower tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches in the surface
Before booking anyone
- Aftercare advice
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Highbury
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Greater London.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Highbury and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
