Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price

Your questions about shower tray repair in Littledean
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you need shower tray repair in Littledean?
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches in the surface
- Movement when you stand on it
- A damaged area around the waste
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
