Shower tray repair in Newhaven, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and light scratches and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Newhaven as everywhere else we work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newhaven
If you manage property in Newhaven, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Repair or replace in Newhaven?
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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newhaven. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
When to call us in Newhaven
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
