Shower Tray Repair for Oaker Hill homes
Problem with your shower tray in Oaker Hill? We put it right where it is, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Movement when you stand on it
- A dull, stained or worn surface
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Shower tray repair in Oaker Hill without replacing anything
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and chipped corners or rims, across ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Oaker Hill?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Oaker Hill.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Other services in Oaker Hill
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colour-matched on site
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Generally one visit, start to finish
