Shower tray repair in South Hanningfield, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We are often asked to fix damage around the waste and a tray that flexes, on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Your questions about shower tray repair in South Hanningfield
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes South Hanningfield. Prices do not change with location.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover South Hanningfield?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to South Hanningfield. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What affects the price in South Hanningfield
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
