Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Rush Green, Essex
Shower tray repair for Rush Green, without a refit. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Repairs from £95
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Shower tray repair in Rush Green, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Rush Green and across Essex.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairing versus replacing in Rush Green
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Rush Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rush Green
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Rush Green
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
