How we handle shower tray repair in Sutton on Trent
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused during fitting and a cracked shower tray.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, 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 early repairs help.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sutton on Trent. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What a repair cannot fix

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Sutton on Trent

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A cracked shower tray
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scratches in the surface
