About our shower tray repair in Staple Fitzpaine
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that flexes and scratches in the surface.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Staple Fitzpaine. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually 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 photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Staple Fitzpaine
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
