Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Acresford
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Acresford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Acresford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Common questions in Acresford
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Is there a guarantee?

Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
