About our shower tray repair in Street End
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We are often asked to fix scratches in the surface and a cracked shower tray, across acrylic, stone resin and cast iron.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs

- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
If you are in Street End and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Street End. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

FAQs for Street End
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
