Shower tray repair at your home in Kings Langley
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about staining and dullness across the tray and scratches from cleaning or grit.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Questions from Kings Langley
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish, typically the following day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Kings Langley
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
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
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
