About our shower tray repair in Sompting
We check the tray before repairing it: 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 work on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and edge chips from dropped bottles.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Sompting questions
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Sompting included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Use the extractor fan
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sompting
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sompting as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
