About our shower tray repair in Ackton
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Whether it’s a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a crack across the base, we can help, on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
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.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Ackton
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you cover the whole of Wakefield?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Ackton. Prices do not change with location.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repair or replace in Ackton?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ackton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
