Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Barlow Moor, Greater Manchester
Shower tray repair in and around Barlow Moor: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A crack across the base
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Shower tray repair at your home in Barlow Moor
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and a crack across the base.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater Manchester.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Barlow Moor. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Barlow Moor, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Common problems we fix in Barlow Moor
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that flexes
- Damage from a refit or building work
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse away soap after showering
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What else we do in Barlow Moor
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
