Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
About our shower tray repair in Ellastone
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with chipped corners or rims and cracks running from the waste, we can help, on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Common questions in Ellastone
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Ellastone.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
What else we do in Ellastone
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ellastone?
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A crack across the base
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Before you book anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
For landlords and businesses
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.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
