Shower tray repair in Waterfront without replacing anything
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are chips or cracks by the plughole and movement when you stand on it.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Common questions in Waterfront
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
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.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Report any creaking or movement early
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we are called out for in Waterfront
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
