How we handle shower tray repair in Frithelstock Stone
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s damage around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Frithelstock Stone: your questions answered
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
