Shower tray repair in South Kelsey, done in place
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a crack across the base and chips on the edges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Questions from South Kelsey
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, generally the day after.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairing versus replacing in South Kelsey
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LN7 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need shower tray repair in South Kelsey

The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches in the surface
