Shower tray repair in Staines Green, done in place
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about chips on the edges and scratches in the surface.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Questions from Staines Green
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Staines Green
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you’re in Staines Green and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Should you replace it?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
