About our shower tray repair in Ainley Top
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Typical jobs include chips on the edges and a dull, stained or worn surface, across stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Common problems we fix in Ainley Top
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Damage around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
Before booking anyone
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
