About our shower tray repair in Upperby
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage around the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Upperby, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What else we do in Upperby
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
