How we handle shower tray repair in Skirbeck
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for damage around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit, in stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repairs by material
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
