About our shower tray repair in Tolskithy
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that flexes.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Questions from Tolskithy
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Tolskithy included. Travel is included in the price.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How long before I can shower?
Normally the next day. We will confirm before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, 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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TR15 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tolskithy
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tolskithy as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
What we’re called out for in Tolskithy
Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

- Damage around the waste
- A crack across the base
Questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take 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.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
