What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Barnby in the Willows

Look out for any of the following:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Barnby in the Willows

Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
