How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repair or replace in Pemberton?

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
