Shower tray repair in Southend without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for chips or cracks by the plughole and a dull, stained or worn surface, in ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
FAQs for Southend
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SE6 postcode.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you work in Southend?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Southend from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Repair or replace in Southend?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chips on the edges
Questions to ask before you book

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
