About our shower tray repair in Algarkirk
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are movement when you stand on it and a cracked shower tray.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Algarkirk and across Lincolnshire.

FAQs for Algarkirk
Do you work in Algarkirk?
We do. We send a technician to Algarkirk for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Algarkirk and the rest of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole 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.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
