About our shower tray repair in Sandridge
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about staining and dullness across the tray and edge chips from dropped bottles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Ventilate the room after showers
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repair or replace in Sandridge?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Sandridge questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Advice
What we are called out for in Sandridge
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Comparing quotes
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether they match the colour on site
