How we handle shower tray repair in Daybrook
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are frequently asked to fix damage around the waste and scratches in the surface, in ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Questions from Daybrook
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How long before I can shower?
Typically the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Nottingham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Check the seal every few months
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
When to call us in Daybrook
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that flexes
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Daybrook. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Most customers in Daybrook get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
