When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

FAQs for Pockthorpe
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common problems we fix in Pockthorpe
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A cracked shower tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chipped corners or rims
What your quote should include
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
