Shower tray repair at your home in Barkestone-le-Vale
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage from a refit or building work, we can help, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
What we’re called out for in Barkestone-le-Vale
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Staining and dullness across the tray

- If travel is included in the price
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Barkestone-le-Vale questions
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Barkestone-le-Vale. Prices do not change with location.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are there extra charges for Barkestone-le-Vale?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry

Related advice
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. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
