Shower tray repair at your home in Tockenham
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with damage around the waste and scratches in the surface, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Most clients in Tockenham get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tockenham. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Questions from Tockenham
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Common problems we fix in Tockenham
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically along the edges or by the waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips on the edges
Before you book anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
