Shower tray repair at your home in Driffold
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and scuffs and light scratches, across stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- 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 pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

What affects the price in Driffold
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your B73 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we are called out for in Driffold
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
Comparing quotes
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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.

Driffold: your questions answered
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
How long before I can shower?
Normally the next day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
