Shower tray repair at your home in Shipton
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are chipped corners or rims and a dull, stained or worn surface.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Shipton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
