What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Common problems we fix in Northfield
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, normally along the edges or by the waste.
Look out for any of the following:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that flexes
- Damage around the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long it needs to cure
- How to care for the finish
- Who will actually do the work
What happens on the day
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 check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Questions from Northfield
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
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 there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
