Shower tray repair in Carwe, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on stone resin, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from cleaning or grit and chipped corners or rims.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Carwe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repairing versus replacing in Carwe
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Carwe
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Scratches in the surface
- Chipped corners or rims
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that flexes

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What else we do in Carwe
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
