How we handle shower tray repair in Abbotswood
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s a crack across the base and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can help.

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 then the old filler has to be removed 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, then guarantee it for a year.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Repairing versus replacing in Abbotswood
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Abbotswood. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material

FAQs for Abbotswood
How much does shower tray repair cost in Abbotswood?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long does it take to cure?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- 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 generally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Do you need shower tray repair in Abbotswood?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A cracked shower tray
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
