Shower tray repair in Baldwin's Gate, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches in the surface and damage around the waste, across acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
Rural addresses like Baldwin's Gate just need a little planning, and we’ll plan the visit around it.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Baldwin's Gate
Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Look out for these signs:
- A cracked shower tray
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Damage from a refit or building work
Facilities teams at buildings such as Baldwins Gate CofE(VC) Primary School can book us for changing-room showers too.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Other services in Baldwin's Gate
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Somewhere as small as Baldwin's Gate, access is generally the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Baldwin's Gate: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Baldwin's Gate?
Yes, we cover the whole UK, villages included.
Do you work for schools and businesses in Baldwin's Gate?
Yes, and we’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited. Tell us about access and timings for the building.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. For a rural home like those around Baldwin's Gate, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while shower tray repair is one trip.
Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
