What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Common problems we fix in Rotherby
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that flexes
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Rented homes near Sileby station (about 4.7 miles west) change hands often, and repairing shower trays between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Rotherby. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Rotherby, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Repair or replace in Rotherby?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Older homes around Rotherby may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. A repair keeps the original.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Rotherby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
