How do I book?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
About our shower tray repair in Insworke
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Typical jobs include a dull, stained or worn surface and scratches in the surface, on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Should you replace it?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Everything repaired in place
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Insworke. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Common problems we fix in Insworke
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips caused during fitting
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- 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
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PL10 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
