What affects the price in Aintree
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Shower tray repair in Aintree, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips on the edges, across stone resin, ceramic and acrylic.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Everything repaired in place
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Aintree questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you work in Aintree?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Aintree. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Common problems we fix in Aintree
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chipped corners or rims
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Check the seal every few months
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos 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.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
