How we handle shower tray repair in Daws Heath
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, stained or worn surface and a crack across the base.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean.
- 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.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit

What we are called out for in Daws Heath
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.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Scratches in the surface
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
Before booking anyone
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Should you replace it?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

FAQs for Daws Heath

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
