Shower tray repair in Backbarrow without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and cracks running from the waste.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage

- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Repairs by material
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 are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
