What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Shower tray repair in Long Whatton, done in place
We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. If you are dealing with scuffs and light scratches and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
What you get with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One price list for the whole UK
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour mixed on the day to match
See our prices page.
When to call us in Long Whatton
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Damage around the waste
Comparing quotes
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
- How the room is protected while they work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Landlord and trade work in Long Whatton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Long Whatton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
