Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Repair or replace in Whitechapel?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. 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: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area

What we are called out for in Whitechapel
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Common reasons people in Whitechapel contact us are:
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A damaged area around the waste
Comparing quotes
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
