How we handle shower tray repair in Gate Foot
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are often asked to fix chips caused during fitting and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, in acrylic, cast iron and stone resin.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why Gate Foot clients choose us
- One visit for most repairs
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

What we’re called out for in Gate Foot
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scratches in the surface

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Gate Foot: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Gate Foot?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
