About our shower tray repair in Milltimber
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches from cleaning or grit and chipped corners or rims, we can typically put it right, on enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
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.
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Milltimber: your questions answered
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, normally the following day.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Milltimber included. Travel is included in the price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
