Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Ashton-on-Ribble, Lancashire
Local shower tray repair for Ashton-on-Ribble: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. 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.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you are in Ashton-on-Ribble and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

The tray is typically 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. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
