DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What affects the price in Stapleford Abbotts
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landlord and trade work in Stapleford Abbotts
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
