How we handle shower tray repair in Barlow
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and people most often call us about cracks running from the waste and scuffs and light scratches.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we’re called out for in Barlow
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
- Cracks running from the waste
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- How changes to the job are handled
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Barlow
How long before I can shower?
Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
