Shower tray repair in Thorpe, done in place
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We’re often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and scuffs and light scratches, across cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Thorpe questions
Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Thorpe. Prices do not change with location.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
When to call us in Thorpe
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that flexes

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
