Shower tray repair at your home in Trewint
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on stone resin, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from cleaning or grit and staining and dullness across the tray.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What affects the price in Trewint
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Trewint. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Other services in Trewint
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
FAQs for Trewint
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you come to Trewint?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Trewint for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What we do, step by step

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
What we’re called out for in Trewint
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- Movement when you stand on it
