Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Shower tray repair at your home in Goldenhill

Our technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are damage around the waste and scuffs and light scratches.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Stoke-on-Trent.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What else we do in Goldenhill
Your questions about shower tray repair in Goldenhill
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do you cover the entire of Stoke-on-Trent?
All of Stoke-on-Trent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you cover Goldenhill?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Goldenhill and the rest of Stoke-on-Trent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goldenhill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Common problems we fix in Goldenhill
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips on the edges
- A damaged area around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the price covers travel
- What preparation is included
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel

What we do, step by step
On the day, 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 the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
