What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Methersgate: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole shower tray
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
