What we do, step by step

- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How we handle shower tray repair in Malting Green
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for damage around the waste and movement when you stand on it, on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Malting Green
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scuffs and light scratches
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Ceramic

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why Malting Green customers choose us
- A fixed quote before you book
