What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Shower tray repair in Harbottle, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and a cracked shower tray, we can help, on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Should you replace it?

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Harbottle
Do you come to Harbottle?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Harbottle. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How long before I can shower?
Usually the day after. We will confirm before we leave.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Harbottle. Prices don’t change with location.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
What else we do in Harbottle
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
When to call us in Harbottle
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips caused during fitting
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
