Shower tray repair in Headless Cross without replacing anything
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are frequently asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage around the waste, on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Headless Cross: your questions answered
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish, normally the day after.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
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.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Headless Cross, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Common problems we fix in Headless Cross
Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A crack across the base
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Headless Cross use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
