For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Questions from Vicarscross
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you work in Vicarscross?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Vicarscross and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
