Landlords, agents and businesses in Loughton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Shower tray repair at your home in Loughton
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. If you’re dealing with chips on the edges and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help, on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Do you need shower tray repair in Loughton?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage around the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A crack across the base

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairing versus replacing in Loughton
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before you book

- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Same prices wherever you are

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
