What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the edges and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Upper Green questions

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover Upper Green?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upper Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Are there extra charges for Upper Green?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Repair or replace in Upper Green?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95.

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
