Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
About our shower tray repair in Lightcliffe
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Our technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a crack across the base.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- 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 following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Questions from Lightcliffe
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Common problems we fix in Lightcliffe
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
