Shower tray repair in Holwellbury, done in place
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and a crack across the base, we can usually put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
What we are called out for in Holwellbury
Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A crack across the base
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Staining and dullness across the tray
What your quote should include

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Holwellbury
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Holwellbury, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
