Shower tray repair at your home in Langley Bottom
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and a cracked shower tray, we can help, on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Repairing versus replacing in Langley Bottom
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Langley Bottom: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
