Shower tray repair in Ladybarn, done in place
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 repair lasts. If you’re dealing with a damaged area around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help, on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we cannot put right

FAQs for Ladybarn
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Ladybarn is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What we’re called out for in Ladybarn
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A crack across the base
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Movement when you stand on it

Repair or replace in Ladybarn?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
