Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
How we handle shower tray repair in Walthew Green
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. We regularly repair acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are staining and dullness across the tray and a cracked shower tray.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Walthew Green as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Walthew Green: your questions answered
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, usually the next day.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
What we are called out for in Walthew Green
