Shower tray repair in Higher Kingcombe without replacing anything
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Our technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a tray that flexes and a damaged area around the waste.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common questions in Higher Kingcombe
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Higher Kingcombe and the rest of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
