Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Shower tray repair at your home in Londonderry
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. Our technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a cracked shower tray and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

- The material and finish

- Access to the area
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check the seal every few months
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
