Shower tray repair in Jockey End, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and chips or cracks by the plughole.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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.
What we cannot put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
When to call us in Jockey End
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Customers usually contact us about:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A damaged area around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
Before booking anyone

- Whether the colour is mixed to match

What else we do in Jockey End
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Jockey End. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
Most customers in Jockey End get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One price list for the whole UK
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour-matched on site

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
