Shower tray repair at your home in Barlborough
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We regularly repair acrylic, stone resin and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage in a new bathroom and chips or cracks by the plughole.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Barlborough
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price covers travel
Repairing versus replacing in Barlborough
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What else we do in Barlborough
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Barlborough
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Questions from Barlborough
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
