How we handle shower tray repair in Martins Heron
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We regularly repair ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and people most often call us about a crack across the base and scratches in the surface.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the 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 will explain it before carrying on.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Martins Heron. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Martins Heron. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Martins Heron: your questions answered
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
