The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What affects the price in Owston
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Owston. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Owston
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

FAQs for Owston
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you work in Owston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Owston and the rest of Doncaster. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
