How we handle shower tray repair in Dandy Corner
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We work on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about movement when you stand on it and damage from a refit or building work.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Should you replace it?
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. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Dandy Corner. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Dandy Corner
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Dandy Corner is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
