What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
If you’re in Dowlish Ford and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dowlish Ford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Dowlish Ford
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage around the waste

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
