Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Landlord and trade work in Wigginton
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
If you’re in Wigginton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

- Scuffs and light scratches
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
