We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. If you are dealing with snagging damage in a new bathroom and movement when you stand on it, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Mugginton and across Derbyshire.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Questions from Mugginton

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your DE6 postcode.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you come to Mugginton?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Mugginton and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Landlord and trade work in Mugginton

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Mugginton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Mugginton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
