Shower tray repair at your home in Newtown
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and chips caused during fitting, across ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.

Newtown: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?

Do you work in Newtown?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Newtown for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

What else we do in Newtown
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Newtown, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
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.
