Shower tray repair in Firswood without replacing anything
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. If you’re dealing with chipped corners or rims and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can normally put it right, on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace in Firswood?
A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Firswood, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
