About our shower tray repair in Tibbington
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic, and people most often call us about a cracked shower tray and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Repairing versus replacing in Tibbington
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Tibbington
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Do you work in Tibbington?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Tibbington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, 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 for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- 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 following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
