DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
Common questions in Monkton
Can you repair shower trays in a rental near Brockley Whins station?
Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do.
Do you work for schools and businesses in Monkton?
Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Tell us about access and timings for the building.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Repair or replace in Monkton?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. If your shower tray in Monkton is sound, a repair is typically the better choice.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Around Monkton, access and parking are typically easy. If you are down a lane or a long drive, tell us when you book.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Monkton
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Look out for any of the following:
- A crack across the base
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A dull, stained or worn surface
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Bede Burn Primary School, changing-room showers can be repaired in place too.
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Aftercare advice
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
What affects the price in Monkton
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Monkton. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Monkton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
