Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Shower tray repair in Lathom without replacing anything
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped corners or rims and a dull, stained or worn surface.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Check the seal every few months
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
