How we handle shower tray repair in Tanwood
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and a cracked shower tray, across enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tanwood. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Tanwood and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Tanwood questions
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What we’re called out for in Tanwood
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage from a refit or building work
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DY10 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
