Shower tray repair in Stanthorne without replacing anything
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches in the surface and cracks running from the waste.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
FAQs for Stanthorne
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover Stanthorne?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Stanthorne. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you cover the whole of Cheshire East?
Across the UK, so Stanthorne is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Landlord and trade work in Stanthorne
If you manage property in Stanthorne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
