Shower tray repair in Kirby Cross without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and cracks running from the waste, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
Most customers in Kirby Cross get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we’re called out for in Kirby Cross
Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- A tray that flexes
- Chips caused during fitting
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips on the edges
Questions to ask before you book
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long it needs to cure
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Kirby Cross?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CO13 postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you fix a cracked tray?

How long before I can shower?

- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
