About our shower tray repair in Blackbrook
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We are frequently asked to fix chips caused during fitting and scratches in the surface, on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Blackbrook. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire shower tray
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
