What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Shower tray repair at your home in Saxtead
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s movement when you stand on it and cracks running from the waste, we can typically put it right, on cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Everything repaired in place
- One visit for most repairs
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Saxtead
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When to call us in Saxtead
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.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A damaged area around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that flexes
Before booking anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Multiple cracks across the tray

FAQs for Saxtead
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
