Shower tray repair at your home in Daubhill
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 enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Whether it’s scratches from cleaning or grit and damage from a refit or building work, we can usually put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
If you’re in Daubhill and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we’re called out for in Daubhill
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips on the edges
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A cracked shower tray
Comparing quotes
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use the extractor fan
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Repairing versus replacing in Daubhill
A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
What you get with us

Daubhill: your questions answered
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you come to Daubhill?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Daubhill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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.
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.
