What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Shower tray repair in Balephuil without replacing anything
We repair plenty of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new bathroom and scratches from cleaning or grit.

What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. 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.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Common questions in Balephuil
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Balephuil included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
