Shower tray repair in Fullwell Cross without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

What we are called out for in Fullwell Cross
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
The things clients typically mention when they call are:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Damage around the waste
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Fullwell Cross
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire shower tray
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
