Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Questions from St Leonards
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do you work in St Leonards?
We do. Repair technicians travel to St Leonards from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Common problems we fix in St Leonards
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
