Shower tray repair in Barepot without replacing anything
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and people most often call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips or cracks by the plughole.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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 often lifts.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Common problems we fix in Barepot
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips on the edges
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Barepot
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
