Shower tray repair at your home in Harpsden
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Common call-outs are for chipped corners or rims and a damaged area around the waste, across stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harpsden as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- One visit for most repairs
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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 strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Questions from Harpsden
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.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you cover the entire of Oxfordshire?
All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
