About our shower tray repair in Harraby
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. We are frequently asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches in the surface, on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Harraby. The price reflects:

- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

When to call us in Harraby
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.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Comparing quotes
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to care for the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether they match the colour on site
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
