Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Shower tray repair in Roughbirchworth without replacing anything
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Typical jobs include scratches from cleaning or grit and chipped corners or rims, in ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
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. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
