Shower tray repair at your home in Lydiard Green
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Check the seal every few months
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Repair or replace in Lydiard Green?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

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 usually the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Lydiard Green: your questions answered
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
