Stratford questions
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repairing versus replacing in Stratford
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
