What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

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.

About our shower tray repair in Donnington

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, across stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down 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.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Donnington, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Donnington

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Donnington questions

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you come to Donnington?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Donnington and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Do you need shower tray repair in Donnington?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
