Shower tray repair in Lyndon, done in place
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for scratches from cleaning or grit and edge chips from dropped bottles, on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Do you need shower tray repair in Lyndon?
Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Damage around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
- When it can be used again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Get a moving tray checked
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- 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.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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 quote, not a guess.

Lyndon: your questions answered
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Repair or replace in Lyndon?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
