Shower tray repair at your home in Lydiate Ash
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Typical jobs include edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Should you replace it?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, 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.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
How we price shower tray repair

- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Lydiate Ash
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- A cracked shower tray
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Comparing quotes
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
