Shower tray repair in Shoreham, done in place

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What your shower tray is made of matters

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 can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Shoreham

  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Shoreham: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
