Repair or replace in Rettendon?
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. Replacement in Rettendon means trades, travel and waste removal, while shower tray repair is one trip.
Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
- Check the seal every few months
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it. Somewhere as small as Rettendon, access is usually the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
