DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace in Lutton?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95.

  • No need to remove anything
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Lutton questions

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Lutton is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PL21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
