Shower tray repair in Hutton Mount without replacing anything
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and people most often call us about staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that flexes.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Common questions in Hutton Mount
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Hutton Mount.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Are there extra charges for Hutton Mount?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hutton Mount as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hutton Mount. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures 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.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
