How we handle shower tray repair in Barton Mills
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are staining and dullness across the tray and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Barton Mills: your questions answered
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP28 postcode.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Store bottles off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Barton Mills
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips caused during fitting
- A cracked shower tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
