About our shower tray repair in Wartnaby
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. We’re often asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and scratches from cleaning or grit, on acrylic, stone resin and ceramic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

When to call us in Wartnaby
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that flexes
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chips on the edges
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wartnaby
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How long does it take to cure?
Generally the next day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
