Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray

Signs you need shower tray repair in Southill
Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A crack across the base
- A damaged area around the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What your quote should include

- Who turns up on the day
What affects the price in Southill
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Southill. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
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.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Southill questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you come to Southill?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Southill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Southill.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
