Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Mackworth questions
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- 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, usually until the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
