What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

Read our prices page.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
