Shower tray repair in Lower Burrow, done in place
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are chips or cracks by the plughole and cracks running from the waste.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Questions from Lower Burrow
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Repairing versus replacing in Lower Burrow
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Lower Burrow. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

- Cast iron

What we are called out for in Lower Burrow
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Scratches in the surface
- Chipped corners or rims
- Cracks running from the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Comparing quotes
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
