Shower tray repair in Milton Ernest, done in place
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips or cracks by the plughole, across acrylic, stone resin and cast iron.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Get a moving tray checked
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
