How we handle shower tray repair in Wilstead
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches in the surface and a cracked shower tray, in enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wilstead
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Wilstead?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Repairing versus replacing in Wilstead
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually.

- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Usually one visit, start to finish

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wilstead. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wilstead use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
