Shower tray repair at your home in Holmfield
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack across the base and chips or cracks by the plughole.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- 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
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Holmfield. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Holmfield: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
