How we handle shower tray repair in South Chailey
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scuffs and light scratches, we can help.
Somewhere like South Chailey, showers are often in converted or older buildings, where timber floors can move. A crack is only repaired once we know the tray is firm.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in South Chailey and across East Sussex.

Common problems we fix in South Chailey
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A crack across the base
- Chips caused during fitting
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
If you let a flat or house near Plumpton station (about 1.7 miles south-west), we repair shower trays between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.

Repair or replace in South Chailey?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. In an older home in a village like South Chailey, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- No extra charge for your area

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Questions from South Chailey
Do you work for schools and businesses in South Chailey?
Yes, we work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Send photos and details of the building.
I let a flat near Plumpton station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes. We fix shower trays between tenancies for landlords and letting agents, and we can quote for several properties together.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
