Shower tray repair in Newtown, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and cracks running from the waste, we can help, on stone resin, acrylic and ceramic alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Newtown and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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.
Common problems we fix in Newtown
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Common reasons people in Newtown contact us include:
- A tray that flexes
- Damage around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scuffs and light scratches

Newtown questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Check the seal every few months
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
