About our shower tray repair in Knettishall
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 work on enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and people most often call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips caused during fitting.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
