Shower Tray Repair for Wanstead homes
Shower tray repair across Wanstead and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Check the seal every few months
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse away soap after showering
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
How we handle shower tray repair in Wanstead
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

What else we do in Wanstead
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
