Shower tray repair in Litchurch, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s a damaged area around the waste and staining and dullness across the tray, we can typically put it right, on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

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.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Landlord and trade work in Litchurch
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find 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.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Do you need shower tray repair in Litchurch?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Staining and dullness across the tray

Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
For a price in Litchurch, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
