How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Landlord and trade work in Carlton
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Carlton. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Questions from Carlton
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you cover the whole of County Durham?
Across the UK, so Carlton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
