Shower tray repair at your home in St Nicholas
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. We work on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about chips caused during fitting and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- 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
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price

St Nicholas questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
