About our shower tray repair in Knighton
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and chips caused during fitting, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Repair or replace in Knighton?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Other local landmarks include Overdale Infant School (less than half a mile south-east) and Church of St Mary Magdalene (less than half a mile south).

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Knighton
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
