Shower tray repair at your home in Greycrook
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the edges and chips or cracks by the plughole.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
What affects the price in Greycrook
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Greycrook. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire 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.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
