How we handle shower tray repair in Slip End
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. We are frequently asked to fix cracks running from the waste and chipped corners or rims, on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One visit for most repairs
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
What we are called out for in Slip End
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the colour is matched
- Aftercare advice
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
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.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Slip End
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are there extra charges for Slip End?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Slip End?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
