Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Repairing versus replacing in Barley End
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barley End use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
