About our shower tray repair in Braystones
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a crack across the base.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Braystones and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Braystones
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Braystones get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- 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

Common problems we fix in Braystones
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Braystones. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why Braystones customers choose us

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Braystones use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Questions from Braystones
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Braystones included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
