How we handle shower tray repair in Brettenham
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Common call-outs are for a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste, in stone resin, cast iron and ceramic.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Brettenham
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Brettenham questions
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you come to Brettenham?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Brettenham from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
What a repair cannot fix

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
