Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Common problems we fix in Pitsea
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A crack across the base
- Chips on the edges
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How to look after the finish
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
