Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Holtsmere End: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you work in Holtsmere End?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Holtsmere End for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
