Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Shower tray repair in Horsley without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with movement when you stand on it and a cracked shower tray, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Horsley questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Horsley?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the day after.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you cover Horsley?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Horsley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What affects the price in Horsley

How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Stone resin

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
