Shower tray repair in Great Marton, done in place
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. If you’re dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage from a refit or building work, we can typically put it right, on acrylic, stone resin and ceramic alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Great Marton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Great Marton. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Any details about the material
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your FY3 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
