Shower tray repair in Golden Cross without replacing anything
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you have snagging damage in a new bathroom and a cracked shower tray, we can generally put it right, on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic alike.
In a village like Golden Cross, many shower trays are in cottages and barn conversions, where timber floors can move. We check the tray is solid before repairing a crack.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What else we do in Golden Cross
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days. For a rural address like Golden Cross, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
What we’re called out for in Golden Cross
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Movement when you stand on it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you care for a building such as Chiddingly Primary School, changing-room showers can be repaired in place too.
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. For a rural home like those around Golden Cross, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.
Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No need to remove anything
- Normally one visit, start to finish

- Access to the area

Quotes from your photos

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
