Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Get a moving tray checked
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
When to call us in Lower Caldecote
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips on the edges
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- If travel is included in the price
- Who will actually do the work

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.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Lower Caldecote: your questions answered
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Lower Caldecote?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
