What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Low Pittington
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it 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.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
