What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Shower tray repair in Salem, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Common call-outs are for a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage from a refit or building work, on ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic.
Homes around Salem frequently have showers added to older buildings, so we check how the tray is supported before repairing.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Check the seal every few months
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Common problems we fix in Salem
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. For a rural home like those around Salem, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while shower tray repair is one trip.
Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
