Shower tray repair in Intake without replacing anything
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. If you’re dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and a crack across the base, we can normally put it right.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Questions from Intake
Which areas do you work in?
All of Sheffield, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer 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 check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Intake. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
When to call us in Intake
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Customers usually contact us about:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips caused during fitting
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
