Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Shower tray repair in Stratford, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scratches from cleaning or grit and chips or cracks by the plughole.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Discoloured square shower tray restored with a new white finish

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
Next we clean and prepare the tray.
Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Getting a price

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

Stick to gentle cleaners
Do not use strong acids or bleach
Get a moving tray checked
Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

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.

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about shower tray repair in Stratford

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are there extra charges for Stratford?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work in Stratford?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stratford. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repairing versus replacing in Stratford

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
