What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Nidd
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- Damage around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A cracked shower tray

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
