How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
How we handle shower tray repair in King Street
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a damaged area around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
Every job is backed for twelve months in King Street and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
King Street: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How long does it take to cure?
Typically the day after. We will confirm before we leave.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Signs you need shower tray repair in King Street

Common reasons people in King Street contact us are:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A crack across the base

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
