What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we are called out for in Mill Green
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips on the edges
- Cracks running from the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Store bottles off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Mill Green. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you are in Mill Green and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t 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.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
