Shower tray repair at your home in Burstallhill
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s scratches from cleaning or grit and movement when you stand on it, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron and stone resin alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When to call us in Burstallhill
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips on the edges
- Damage from a refit or building work

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Burstallhill
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
