Shower tray repair in Tendring without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with edge chips from dropped bottles and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can help, on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Check the seal every few months
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Do you need shower tray repair in Tendring?
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage from a refit or building work
What your quote should include

- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Who will actually do the work
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Tendring
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Tendring.
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 leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why Tendring customers choose us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
