How we handle shower tray repair in Sawmills
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We work on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about edge chips from dropped bottles and staining and dullness across the tray.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

Do you need shower tray repair in Sawmills?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips on the edges
- A damaged area around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
Before booking anyone
- How the colour is matched
- How to look after the finish
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who turns up on the day
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Sawmills
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sawmills as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Questions from Sawmills
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Sawmills?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Prices and what affects them

- How hard the colour is to match

Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire shower tray
If you’re in Sawmills and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
