DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, 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 prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Shower tray repair at your home in Eldon
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. If you are dealing with a cracked shower tray and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can normally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Eldon and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common problems we fix in Eldon
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A crack across the base
- Scratches in the surface

Work for landlords and builders
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.
If you manage property in Eldon, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Eldon
What happens after I send photos?

Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

- 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.

- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
