Shower Tray Repair for Crofts End homes
Shower tray repair in Crofts End without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, then we come to you.
- Repairs from £95
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that flexes
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Check the seal every few months
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Shower tray repair in Crofts End without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and movement when you stand on it, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Crofts End customers choose us
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Crofts End: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Do you come to Crofts End?
We do. We send a technician to Crofts End for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- 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 entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
