Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Questions from Lyde Green
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
What we’re called out for in Lyde Green
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Look out for any of the following:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Cracks running from the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Comparing quotes
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lyde Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
