Shower tray repair in Cardrona without replacing anything
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Cardrona
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- A tray that flexes
- Chipped corners or rims
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What aftercare is recommended
- What preparation is included
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Cardrona questions
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work in Cardrona?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Cardrona from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
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.
