How we handle shower tray repair in Stanway
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new bathroom and staining and dullness across the tray, on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What affects the price in Stanway
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stanway. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Other services in Stanway
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Stanway, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll 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.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
