Shower tray repair at your home in Charlestown
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with damage from a refit or building work and a damaged area around the waste, we can typically put it right.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Charlestown
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first

- Unusual colours or finishes

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
