How we handle shower tray repair in Watch House Green
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include cracks running from the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, in stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace in Watch House Green?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Questions from Watch House Green
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What else we do in Watch House Green
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 typically cheaper.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
