The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it. Somewhere as small as Aycliffe Village, access is typically the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
