About our shower tray repair in Raithby by Spilsby
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scuffs and light scratches and a cracked shower tray, we can usually put it right, on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in Raithby by Spilsby
Replacing a tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What affects the price in Raithby by Spilsby
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Raithby by Spilsby
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Normally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
