Should you replace it?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How we handle shower tray repair in Knox Bridge
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are scratches in the surface and staining and dullness across the tray.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Knox Bridge and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common problems we fix in Knox Bridge
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Common reasons people in Knox Bridge contact us are:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that flexes
- Chips caused during fitting
- Damage around the waste

- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Questions from Knox Bridge
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
