Shower tray repair in Clovenstone without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Common problems we fix in Clovenstone
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.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste

How we price shower tray repair

- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

Common questions in Clovenstone
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the next day.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
