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.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What we are called out for in Lyne Down
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Movement when you stand on it

Lyne Down: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Lyne Down included. Travel is included in the price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Herefordshire.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lyne Down. The price comes down to:
