How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

FAQs for Little Chelsea

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Are there extra charges for Little Chelsea?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

We cover the whole UK, including Little Chelsea and the rest of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Do you need shower tray repair in Little Chelsea?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Look out for these signs:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that flexes

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
