About our shower tray repair in Northstowe
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. We are often asked to fix damage around the waste and a tray that flexes, in acrylic, ceramic and stone resin.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What else we do in Northstowe
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
What we are called out for in Northstowe
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A tray that flexes
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips on the edges
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

- When it can be used again
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Northstowe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Northstowe questions
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
