Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
About our shower tray repair in West Barns
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. We regularly repair stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most often call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and movement when you stand on it.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should you replace it?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Barns
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What we’re called out for in West Barns
Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Look out for these signs:
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Movement when you stand on it
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Ceramic

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

West Barns questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you work in West Barns?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to West Barns for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
