About our shower tray repair in Underbarrow
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are frequently asked to fix chips caused during fitting and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Underbarrow
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that flexes
- Damage from a refit or building work

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Do you work in Underbarrow?

Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Underbarrow. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Landlord and trade work in Underbarrow
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
If you manage property in Underbarrow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
