Shower tray repair in Denby Common without replacing anything
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s a dull, stained or worn surface and a crack across the base, we can help, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Denby Common. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
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.

What else we do in Denby Common
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
