Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Owthorne, East Riding of Yorkshire

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use the extractor fan
- Get a moving tray checked
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
About our shower tray repair in Owthorne
A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish. If you are dealing with edge chips from dropped bottles and a damaged area around the waste, we can usually put it right, on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Owthorne
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches in the surface
Before you book anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Owthorne questions
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your HU19 postcode.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- 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 before booking.
