Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Repair or replace in Ashton?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Ashton

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Ashton?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ashton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
