Shower tray repair & resurfacing in West Drayton, Greater London

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Drayton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Shower tray repair in West Drayton without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and a damaged area around the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Repair or replace in West Drayton?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Store bottles off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

How it works
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 for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
When to call us in West Drayton
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage around the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage from a refit or building work
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What protection goes down before work starts
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
