About our shower tray repair in Potter's Green

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

Do you need shower tray repair in Potter's Green?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scratches in the surface

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Repair or replace in Potter's Green?

Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Check the seal every few months

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Potter's Green

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do you work in Potter's Green?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Potter's Green and the rest of East Sussex. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Potter's Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
