About our shower tray repair in Harlestone
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about chips or cracks by the plughole and scratches from cleaning or grit.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlord and trade work in Harlestone
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harlestone use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.
- 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 reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Common questions in Harlestone

How much does shower tray repair cost in Harlestone?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
