Shower tray repair at your home in Thornhill
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that flexes and chips on the edges.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse away soap after showering
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
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 start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Thornhill questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you cover Thornhill?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Thornhill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
When to call us in Thornhill
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chipped corners or rims
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Thornhill. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
