Shower tray repair in Crankwood, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with chips on the edges and a crack across the base, we can typically put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Crankwood. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- A fixed quote before booking
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What else we do in Crankwood
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Common problems we fix in Crankwood
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Cracks running from the waste

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Crankwood questions
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Are there extra charges for Crankwood?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
