Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
How we handle shower tray repair in Mattersey Thorpe
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and scratches from cleaning or grit, on enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

FAQs for Mattersey Thorpe
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Mattersey Thorpe. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, 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.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Mattersey Thorpe
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
