How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare. Somewhere as small as Horney Common, access is usually the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repair or replace: which is better?

Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
