The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Shower tray repair in Ventnor, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We’re frequently asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage around the waste, in cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Do you need shower tray repair in Ventnor?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A crack across the base
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- How soon you can use it again
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Ventnor
If you manage property in Ventnor, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
