Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy. In a village or hamlet like Stratford St Mary, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. In an older home in a village like Stratford St Mary, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
