Shower tray repair at your home in Langley Street
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include scuffs and light scratches and damage around the waste, across cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Langley Street questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Langley Street included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most customers in Langley Street get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairing versus replacing in Langley Street
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 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.

How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
