Repair or replace in Driby?
Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Replacement in Driby means trades, travel and waste removal, while shower tray repair is one trip.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use. For a rural address like Driby, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the shower tray repair, so there is no second trip.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

When to call us in Driby
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips on the edges
- Chips caused during fitting
- A crack across the base
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

Driby: your questions answered
Do you cover villages like Driby?
Yes, we do: small places like Driby are covered as standard. Just mention any tricky access.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes cost nothing and no obligation.
