Shower tray repair at your home in Much Birch
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and people most often call us about chipped corners or rims and a crack across the base.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Much Birch
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
How long does it take to cure?
Generally the day after. We will confirm before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
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.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use the extractor fan
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
