What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Shower tray repair in Polgooth, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a cracked shower tray, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What else we do in Polgooth
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- 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, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in Polgooth
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Do you come to Polgooth?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Polgooth. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Polgooth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Fixed prices from your photos

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
