About our shower tray repair in Abbey Field
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. If you’re dealing with a crack across the base and chips on the edges, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Abbey Field
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Abbey Field. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
