Shower tray repair at your home in Baldwinholme
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and scuffs and light scratches, in ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
FAQs for Baldwinholme
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour mixed on the day to match
Read our prices page.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
