Shower tray repair at your home in Common Moor
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our technicians work on cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and damage around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Common questions in Common Moor
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Common Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Repair or replace in Common Moor?
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. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
