Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Questions from Burcot
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you work in Burcot?
We do. We send a technician to Burcot for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What affects the price in Burcot
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
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.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
