Shower tray repair at your home in Stock
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stock. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
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.

Landlord and trade work in Stock
For anyone letting property in or around Stock, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we are called out for in Stock
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Your questions about shower tray repair in Stock
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover Stock?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Stock and the rest of Essex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
