Shower tray repair at your home in Longman
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and scratches in the surface, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice
Do you need shower tray repair in Longman?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A dull, stained or worn surface

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Questions from Longman
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Longman. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Longman, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
