DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we handle shower tray repair in Barnsley
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We work on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and chips caused during fitting.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why Barnsley clients choose us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Work done at your home or business

Do you need shower tray repair in Barnsley?
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A tray that flexes
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chips on the edges
- Scuffs and light scratches
Comparing quotes
- How to look after the finish
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
