Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Shower tray repair in Kelshall without replacing anything
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a damaged area around the waste.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Kelshall, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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.
Questions from Kelshall
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Kelshall is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Repair or replace in Kelshall?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
