At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare. Somewhere like Tide Mills needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.

Advice
Shower tray repair at your home in Tide Mills
A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and cracks running from the waste.
Somewhere like Tide Mills, showers are frequently in converted or older buildings, where timber floors can move. A crack is only repaired once we know the tray is firm.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Other services in Tide Mills
Do you need shower tray repair in Tide Mills?
Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A crack across the base
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you care for a building such as UTC@Harbourside, changing-room showers can be repaired in place too.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Check the seal every few months
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Get a moving tray checked
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
FAQs for Tide Mills
Will you travel to Tide Mills?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.
Do you take on commercial work in Tide Mills?
Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. We will agree timings that suit the building.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
