About our shower tray repair in St Thomas
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We’re frequently asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and edge chips from dropped bottles, on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
