Shower tray repair in Balliveolan without replacing anything
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. If you’re dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can help, on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Balliveolan
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Balliveolan is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Balliveolan
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Balliveolan. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Materials we work on in Balliveolan
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
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.
Do you need shower tray repair in Balliveolan?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Common reasons people in Balliveolan contact us include:
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that flexes
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
