Shower tray repair at your home in Ashmanhaugh
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s a damaged area around the waste and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help, on cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Get a moving tray checked
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What affects the price in Ashmanhaugh
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Ashmanhaugh questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What your shower tray is made of matters
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, 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.
