Shower tray repair at your home in Darnley
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new bathroom and staining and dullness across the tray, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
If you’re in Darnley and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Cast iron

- Ceramic
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
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’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Darnley
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Report any creaking or movement early
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
