DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
About our shower tray repair in Rockcliffe
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Typical jobs include staining and dullness across the tray and a damaged area around the waste, across stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
