Shower Tray Repair for Friars Cliff homes
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing at your home in Friars Cliff, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chipped corners or rims
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Check the seal every few months
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
About our shower tray repair in Friars Cliff
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, stone resin and ceramic, and people most often call us about a damaged area around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage around the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Movement when you stand on it
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What aftercare is recommended
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Friars Cliff, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
