Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Your questions about shower tray repair in St Chloe
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you work in St Chloe?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to St Chloe for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Normally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What we are called out for in St Chloe
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- How the colour is matched
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally 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.
