Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Store bottles off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
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.
FAQs for Long Meadowend
Which areas do you work in?
All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Long Meadowend?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
