About our shower tray repair in Box
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that flexes and scratches in the surface.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Box
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Box.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you need shower tray repair in Box?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Same prices wherever you are
- We leave the room as we found it

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
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 will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Landlords, agents and businesses in Box
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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 to keep costs down.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
