Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. 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. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repairing versus replacing in Gildersome

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gildersome. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
