FAQs for Arthill
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, normally the day after.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Trafford.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use the extractor fan
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Arthill
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
