What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
- We leave the room as we found it

Signs you need shower tray repair in Abbey Dore
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Customers generally contact us about:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A crack across the base
- Chips caused during fitting
Comparing quotes
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What else we do in Abbey Dore
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
