About our shower tray repair in Burnhope
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Common call-outs are for chips on the edges and snagging damage in a new bathroom, across acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Common problems we fix in Burnhope
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A crack across the base
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Burnhope, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
