Shower Tray Repair in Appleton Thorn
Our technicians come to Appleton Thorn for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips caused during fitting
- A damaged area around the waste
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What else we do in Appleton Thorn
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Appleton Thorn. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
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.

Common questions in Appleton Thorn
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Appleton Thorn?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover the entire of Warrington?
Everywhere in the UK, Appleton Thorn included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish, normally the following day.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace in Appleton Thorn?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- No extra charge for your area
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Common problems we fix in Appleton Thorn
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
