Shower tray repair in Blakenhall, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the edges and staining and dullness across the tray, in stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Blakenhall

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blakenhall

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cheshire East and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Common questions in Blakenhall

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Repair or replace in Blakenhall?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our full price list.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Check the seal every few months

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
