Shower tray repair in Drinkstone, done in place
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix snagging damage in a new bathroom and damage around the waste, across ceramic, acrylic and stone resin.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we are called out for in Drinkstone
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Damage around the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- If travel is included in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Store bottles off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Drinkstone. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Drinkstone as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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.
