DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Shower tray repair at your home in Itchen
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips or cracks by the plughole.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common questions in Itchen
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Itchen is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
When can I use the shower again?
Generally the day after. We will confirm before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
What we’re called out for in Itchen
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A crack across the base
- Damage around the waste

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Work done at your home or business
Read our prices page.
What affects the price in Itchen
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Itchen
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
