Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
How we handle shower tray repair in Uckington
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a damaged area around the waste and damage from a refit or building work.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Common questions in Uckington
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Uckington?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How long before I can shower?
Usually the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron

Common problems we fix in Uckington
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chipped corners or rims

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
