Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Typical jobs include chips caused during fitting and a tray that flexes, across acrylic, cast iron and stone resin.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.
- 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 strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Great Corby questions
How long does it take to cure?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you need shower tray repair in Great Corby?
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that flexes

What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Great Corby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
