Stonecrouch: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Shower tray repair in Stonecrouch without replacing anything
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 tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about movement when you stand on it and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice
What affects the price in Stonecrouch
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stonecrouch. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
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 quote, not a guess.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
