Shower tray repair in Little Bowden without replacing anything
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include scuffs and light scratches and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, in stone resin, cast iron and acrylic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Quotes from your pictures

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE16 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Repair or replace in Little Bowden?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Common problems we fix in Little Bowden
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches in the surface
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

When a repair isn’t the answer

Your questions about shower tray repair in Little Bowden
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. 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. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
