Shower tray repair at your home in Claypole
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include staining and dullness across the tray and snagging damage in a new bathroom, on cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic.

Covering Claypole
Claypole is about 4 miles south-east of Newark-on-Trent, in Nottinghamshire. Jobs in Claypole are booked in like any other job: a fixed price from your pictures, and a technician at your door on the day. We work in all 329 towns and villages across Nottinghamshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our jobs stretch from Claypole to Birmingham (about 62 miles away).
Our technicians cover all of the NG23 postcode area and the streets around it. That includes homes on Main Street, Wickliffe Park and Doddington Lane and the roads around them. We also travel to Dry Doddington (1 mile south), Stubton (1 mile east), Fernwood (2 miles north-west), Fenton (2 miles north-east) and Barnby in the Willows (2 miles north). We also work in nearby towns such as Carlton (15 miles west), Newark-on-Trent (4 miles north-west), Netherfield (15 miles west), Bingham (11 miles south-west), Radcliffe on Trent (14 miles south-west) and Calverton (15 miles west).

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
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.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
If you manage property in Claypole, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Do you need shower tray repair in Claypole?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Customers normally contact us about:
- A tray that flexes
- A crack across the base
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
