Shower tray repair in Nanstallon, done in place
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about chips on the edges and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic

Questions from Nanstallon
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Nanstallon?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Nanstallon?
We do. Technicians travel to Nanstallon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Nanstallon, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
