What else we do in Plaistow
Do you need shower tray repair in Plaistow?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Damage around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips on the edges
- Chips caused during fitting

FAQs for Plaistow
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
