How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Common questions in Bickershaw
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Bickershaw?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WN2 postcode.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Bickershaw
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Landlord and trade work in Bickershaw
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bickershaw use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- Ceramic
- Cast iron

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
