Different materials, different repairs
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 it’s worth repairing early.
Shower tray repair at your home in Loders
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We’re frequently asked to fix a crack across the base and snagging damage in a new bathroom, across ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What else we do in Loders
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DT6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Do you need shower tray repair in Loders?
Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
