Shower tray repair in Castleton without replacing anything
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and a dull, stained or worn surface, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Do you need shower tray repair in Castleton?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A crack across the base

- Who will actually do the work
- How long it needs to cure
- How to look after the finish
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Castleton. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on

FAQs for Castleton
Are there extra charges for Castleton?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you cover the whole of Cardiff?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Castleton. Prices don’t change with location.
Repair or replace in Castleton?
