How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use the extractor fan
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. For a home around Shotover Hill where the shower tray is sound, replacing it is rarely worth the cost and disruption.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. 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. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
