Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Questions from Chelston
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Chelston?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When can I use the shower again?
Generally the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Do you come to Chelston?
We do. We send a technician to Chelston for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Repairing versus replacing in Chelston
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No need to remove anything
See our prices page.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
