Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Stoke, Medway
Shower tray repair for Stoke, without a refit. Send us photos for a fixed quote, then we come to you.
- Repairs from £95
- Scratches in the surface
- A crack across the base
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
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.
About our shower tray repair in Stoke
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. Common call-outs are for edge chips from dropped bottles and a damaged area around the waste, on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Stoke questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long does it take to cure?
You will get the exact time when we finish, usually the day after.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Stoke
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray
Before booking anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who turns up on the day
Repairing versus replacing in Stoke
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
