Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
About our shower tray repair in Scole Common
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We’re frequently asked to fix chips caused during fitting and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, across stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Common questions in Scole Common
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Repairing versus replacing in Scole Common

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.
