Shower tray repair in Princethorpe, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can help, on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Princethorpe. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Princethorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Princethorpe: your questions answered
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
