Shower tray repair at your home in New Wood
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a dull, stained or worn surface, across cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

New Wood questions
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
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.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
