How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Do you need shower tray repair in Cronton?
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Clients typically contact us about:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Cronton: your questions answered
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Cronton
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
