Shower tray repair in Wearhead without replacing anything
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We’re often asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, across ceramic, stone resin and cast iron.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace in Wearhead?
Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Stick to gentle cleaners

- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
