About our shower tray repair in Swingfield Minnis
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we’re called out for in Swingfield Minnis
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A cracked shower tray
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
Questions to ask before you book
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who turns up on the day
- How long it needs to cure
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
FAQs for Swingfield Minnis
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CT15 postcode.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Check the seal every few months
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
