Shower tray repair at your home in Poynders End
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can generally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we’d advise against a repair

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Poynders End, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the area is dry

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
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 will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace in Poynders End?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

- Movement when you stand on it
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
