Shower tray repair in Pollhill, done in place
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and staining and dullness across the tray.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
