Shower tray repair in Milstead, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and damage from a refit or building work.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Milstead
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What affects the price in Milstead
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
When to call us in Milstead
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Customers normally contact us about:
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A crack across the base

- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
