Shower tray repair in Sudbourne without replacing anything
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about movement when you stand on it and a cracked shower tray.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Common problems we fix in Sudbourne
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Look out for any of the following:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips caused during fitting
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What affects the price in Sudbourne
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
