About our shower tray repair in Melcombe Regis
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with a damaged area around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help, on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Common questions in Melcombe Regis
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you cover Melcombe Regis?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Melcombe Regis for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Do you need shower tray repair in Melcombe Regis?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Before booking anyone

- How soon you can use it again
Repair or replace in Melcombe Regis?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place

When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
