Shower tray repair across Blackpool: what to expect
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We’re frequently asked to fix damage around the waste and scratches in the surface, on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.
What it costs in Blackpool
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Blackpool. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit.
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How changes to the job are handled
Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackpool
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What we’re called out for in Blackpool
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage around the waste
- Movement when you stand on it
- Cracks running from the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
Questions from Blackpool
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you come to Blackpool?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Blackpool for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
When can I use the shower again?
Generally the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
