Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Bolton, Cumbria

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Shower tray repair at your home in Bolton
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Typical jobs include scuffs and light scratches and a tray that flexes, on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bolton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When to call us in Bolton
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips on the edges
- A damaged area around the waste
- A crack across the base
- Movement when you stand on it
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Repairing versus replacing in Bolton
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Advice
Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
