What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Carlinghow
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips on the edges
- Movement when you stand on it
- Cracks running from the waste
- Damage around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price covers travel
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Same prices wherever you are
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
