What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

About our shower tray repair in Pathfinder Village
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include cracks running from the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What else we do in Pathfinder Village
Questions from Pathfinder Village
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Pathfinder Village?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you come to Pathfinder Village?
We do. Technicians travel to Pathfinder Village from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
When to call us in Pathfinder Village
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage around the waste

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.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
