About our shower tray repair in Elson
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include a tray that flexes and a cracked shower tray, in stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Repair or replace in Elson?
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why Elson clients choose us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Do you work in Elson?
We do. We send a technician to Elson for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
