Shower tray repair in Farringdon, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and a crack across the base, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Farringdon and across Sunderland.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on

When to call us in Farringdon
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A crack across the base
- Chipped corners or rims
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What prep work is covered
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Farringdon. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
