About our shower tray repair in Rookhope
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches in the surface.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Can I fix it myself?
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 often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
FAQs for Rookhope
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What affects the price in Rookhope
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
