Shower Tray Repair for Abram homes
Our repair technicians come to Abram for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage around the waste
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Shower tray repair at your home in Abram
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Our technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new bathroom and scuffs and light scratches.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Abram and across Wigan.

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Work for landlords and builders
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.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use the extractor fan
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Common questions in Abram
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Wigan, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What we’re called out for in Abram
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chipped corners or rims
- A crack across the base
- Damage around the waste
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
