Shower tray repair in Holditch without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We work on acrylic, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are movement when you stand on it and chips on the edges.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Holditch
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Common questions in Holditch
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How long before I can shower?
Typically the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Do you cover Holditch?
We do. We send a technician to Holditch for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Holditch?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
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.
Do you need shower tray repair in Holditch?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
Repairing versus replacing in Holditch
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Holditch
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
See our prices page.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
