Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Store bottles off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
DIY kit or professional 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Repair or replace in Newmilns?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newmilns. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Newmilns: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
