How we handle shower tray repair in Altens
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. We work on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a damaged area around the waste and chips caused during fitting.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Altens
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Do you come to Altens?
We do. Technicians travel to Altens from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Altens?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your AB12 postcode.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Altens. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Altens
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
