Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and people most often call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and edge chips from dropped bottles.

Ashby Magna: your questions answered
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
When to call us in Ashby Magna

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
