About our shower tray repair in Cromwell
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and light scratches and cracks running from the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Cromwell
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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 pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
When to call us in Cromwell
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Cracks running from the waste

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Any details about the material
For a price in Cromwell, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Cromwell, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Repair or replace in Cromwell?
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. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
