About our shower tray repair in Preston Brook
A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We are often asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and a tray that flexes, in acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How to prepare

Advice
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

FAQs for Preston Brook
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Do you cover Preston Brook?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Preston Brook from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
