Signs you need shower tray repair in Puddledock
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A crack across the base
- Chips on the edges
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

- Whether the colour is mixed to match

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Puddledock, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
