Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tadmarton
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

What affects the price in Tadmarton
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Common problems we fix in Tadmarton
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Common questions in Tadmarton
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do you work in Tadmarton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tadmarton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Tadmarton.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
