Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Perkinsville
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Movement when you stand on it
- A cracked shower tray
What your quote should include

Repairing versus replacing in Perkinsville
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
