Shower tray repair in Tonwell, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about damage around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

When to call us in Tonwell

These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What your quote should include

Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Usually the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you price it without visiting?

Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
