Shower tray repair in South Woodham Ferrers without replacing anything
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We are frequently asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a dull, stained or worn surface, in ceramic, cast iron and acrylic.
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.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
What we are called out for in South Woodham Ferrers
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Movement when you stand on it
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A cracked shower tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
