Repairs by material
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.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
About our shower tray repair in Ruishton
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Our technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, stained or worn surface and scratches from cleaning or grit.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Ruishton
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chipped corners or rims

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Do you hold any accreditations?

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
