How we handle shower tray repair in Baxenden
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and chips on the edges, we can generally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Store bottles off the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Common questions in Baxenden
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
How long does it take to cure?
We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the next day.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Baxenden?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you need shower tray repair in Baxenden?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Cracks running from the waste
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How your room will be protected
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What affects the price in Baxenden
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
