Shower tray repair at your home in Shortlands
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chips on the edges and scuffs and light scratches, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We make sure the tray does not 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 match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

FAQs for Shortlands
Are there extra charges for Shortlands?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you cover Shortlands?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Shortlands for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Movement when you stand on it

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
