Shower tray repair in Harrowden without replacing anything
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and damage from a refit or building work.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Common questions in Harrowden

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
How long does it take to cure?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Can you resurface a whole tray?

When to call us in Harrowden
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A crack across the base
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- What prep work is covered
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Harrowden. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Check the seal every few months
- Get a moving tray checked
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Repairing versus replacing in Harrowden
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No extra charge for your area
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
