About our shower tray repair in Affetside
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that flexes, in cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Common problems we fix in Affetside
Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A damaged area around the waste
What your quote should include

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Affetside. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Affetside questions
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Bury, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
