What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Landlord and trade work in East Stour
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Stour as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean.
- 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 colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why East Stour customers choose us
- Everything repaired in place
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Your questions about shower tray repair in East Stour
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Do you cover the entire of Dorset?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
