The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Barnwell
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Barnwell.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
How long does it take to cure?
You will get the exact time when we finish, generally the next day.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Barnwell?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Repairing versus replacing in Barnwell
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. 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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Barnwell
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Scratches in the surface
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Movement when you stand on it

What else we do in Barnwell
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barnwell use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
