Shower tray repair in Blockley, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and a crack across the base, across ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Questions from Blockley
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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.
