What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Northington: your questions answered
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish, normally the following day.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you cover Northington?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Northington and the rest of Hampshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Repairing versus replacing in Northington
A new shower tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Northington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Northington, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
