Shower Tray Repair for Perry Crofts homes
Our repair technicians come to Perry Crofts for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
About our shower tray repair in Perry Crofts
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, stained or worn surface and a cracked shower tray.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Perry Crofts, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repairing versus replacing in Perry Crofts
Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Questions from Perry Crofts
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
