About our shower tray repair in Ellistown
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Whether it’s a crack across the base and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can typically put it right, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Repair or replace in Ellistown?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole 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 normally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 generally cheaper.
