Shower tray repair at your home in Tooting Bec
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are often asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and cracks running from the waste, across enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Other services in Tooting Bec
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
