Shower tray repair in Miles Cross, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about scratches in the surface and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

FAQs for Miles Cross
Is the work guaranteed?

Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Miles Cross as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
