Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
What affects the price in Sturton le Steeple
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Sturton le Steeple. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What else we do in Sturton le Steeple
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
