Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

About our shower tray repair in Willington
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about scratches in the surface and staining and dullness across the tray.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Willington questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you come to Willington?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Willington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. 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. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
When to call us in Willington
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips caused during fitting

What affects the price in Willington
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Willington, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

- Check the seal every few months
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
