Shower tray repair in Steam Mills, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage around the waste.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Steam Mills
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Steam Mills: your questions answered
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Common problems we fix in Steam Mills
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips caused during fitting
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
