Shower tray repair in Elmore without replacing anything
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are often asked to fix chips on the edges and snagging damage in a new bathroom, across cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Common questions in Elmore
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you come to Elmore?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Elmore. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why Elmore customers choose us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

What else we do in Elmore
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When to call us in Elmore
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Cracks running from the waste

What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
