Shower tray repair at your home in Westmeston
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches from cleaning or grit and movement when you stand on it, in cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic.
In a village like Westmeston, many shower trays are in cottages and barn conversions, where timber floors can move. We check the tray is solid before repairing a crack.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Westmeston and across West Sussex.

Do you need shower tray repair in Westmeston?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A cracked shower tray
Landlords with property near Hassocks station (about 2.1 miles north-west) use us between tenancies, so shower trays are repaired rather than replaced.
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use. For a rural address like Westmeston, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the shower tray repair, so there’s no second trip.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Repairing versus replacing in Westmeston
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. In an older home in a village like Westmeston, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
