Shower tray repair in Sutton Valence without replacing anything
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and staining and dullness across the tray, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

What we’re called out for in Sutton Valence
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips on the edges
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips caused during fitting
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who turns up on the day
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Sutton Valence
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
