DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Shower tray repair in Westcombe without replacing anything
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 repair lasts. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and chips or cracks by the plughole.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Westcombe
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Westcombe. Prices don’t change with location.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on

The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
