- Repairs from £95

What happens on the day
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 have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What else we do in Shieldfield
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
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.
What affects the price in Shieldfield
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Most customers in Shieldfield get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Shieldfield
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shieldfield as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Normally one visit, start to finish

When to call us in Shieldfield
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again
