Shower tray repair in Shoreditch without replacing anything
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and staining and dullness across the tray.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Do you need shower tray repair in Shoreditch?
Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches in the surface

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Common questions in Shoreditch
Do you work in Shoreditch?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Shoreditch and the rest of Greater London. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Shoreditch, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Shoreditch. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
