How we handle shower tray repair in Longbyre
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. We’re often asked to fix movement when you stand on it and scuffs and light scratches, in acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Longbyre, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Repairing versus replacing in Longbyre
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
