Shower tray repair at your home in Longhope
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Longhope
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What affects the price in Longhope
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How the visit works
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 usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Longhope
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts

- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
