- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

About our shower tray repair in Bean
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Our technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and scuffs and light scratches.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Bean

- A damaged area around the waste

- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Common questions in Bean
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What affects the price in Bean
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bean. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
