- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Check the seal every few months
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When to call us in Langley Moor
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A damaged area around the waste

Common questions in Langley Moor
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Do you cover the whole of County Durham?
We cover the entire UK, including Langley Moor and the rest of County Durham. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Langley Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
