How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clarborough
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clarborough as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Common questions in Clarborough
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Clarborough. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, 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 when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
