How we handle shower tray repair in Chapel Stile
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with damage around the waste and cracks running from the waste, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Chapel Stile: your questions answered
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?
We cover the whole UK, including Chapel Stile and the rest of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Chapel Stile?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
