About our shower tray repair in Old Stratford
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about snagging damage in a new bathroom and damage around the waste.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Old Stratford
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Old Stratford?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you need shower tray repair in Old Stratford?
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically along the edges or by the waste.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage from a refit or building work

- Chips on the edges
- Damage around the waste

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
Most clients in Old Stratford get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check the seal every few months
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
