Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Shower tray repair in Penstone without replacing anything
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and people most often call us about a cracked shower tray and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Penstone and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- 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
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price

Do you need shower tray repair in Penstone?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scuffs and light scratches

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
