DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Common questions in D'Arcy
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in D'Arcy
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EH22 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in D'Arcy
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
