Shower tray repair at your home in North Clifton
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We are frequently asked to fix damage around the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, in acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair

- Stone resin
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
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, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Common questions in North Clifton
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
