About our shower tray repair in Appley Bridge
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a damaged area around the waste, across cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlord and trade work in Appley Bridge
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Appley Bridge as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Appley Bridge, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- 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)

What we are called out for in Appley Bridge
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, usually along the edges or by the waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A tray that flexes
- Chips on the edges
- Cracks running from the waste
- A damaged area around the waste
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Do you work in Appley Bridge?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Appley Bridge from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?

When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
