Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Shower tray repair in Lower Eype without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about cracks running from the waste and a tray that flexes.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Lower Eype
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Lower Eype. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Take a look at our pricing.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Common questions in Lower Eype
Do you come to Lower Eype?
We do. We send a technician to Lower Eype for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Lower Eype?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Get a moving tray checked
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
