About our shower tray repair in Stanford Rivers
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about a cracked shower tray and chipped corners or rims.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stanford Rivers
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stanford Rivers use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Stanford Rivers
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Do you need shower tray repair in Stanford Rivers?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again

- What prep work is covered

Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
