Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work 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.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
