Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Racton questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?
Across the UK, and that includes Racton. Prices do not change with location.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Racton

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
