Shower tray repair in Shillingford St George without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a crack across the base and damage from a refit or building work.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Shillingford St George as everywhere else we work.

FAQs for Shillingford St George
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
