Shower tray repair in Block Lane without replacing anything
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and people most often call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and a dull, stained or worn surface.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Block Lane as everywhere else we work.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
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.
What affects the price in Block Lane
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Common questions in Block Lane
Do you come to Block Lane?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Block Lane and the rest of Oldham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How long does it take to cure?
You will get the exact time when we finish, normally the next day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, 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 it’s worth repairing early.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
