If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Shower tray repair at your home in Garth
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Typical jobs include chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that flexes, across enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What we are called out for in Garth
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips on the edges
- Chips caused during fitting
Comparing quotes
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Garth
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Garth, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
