What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Shower tray repair in The Quar, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include staining and dullness across the tray and chips or cracks by the plughole, on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around The Quar, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What we cannot put right

- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
