For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Grimethorpe
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you cover Grimethorpe?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Grimethorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
