How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Black Notley questions
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Are there extra charges for Black Notley?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
How long does it take to cure?
Generally the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why Black Notley customers choose us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Everything repaired in place

Landlord and trade work in Black Notley
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What we are called out for in Black Notley
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Damage around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from pictures 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.
