Signs you need shower tray repair in Bolton Low Houses
Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A cracked shower tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chipped corners or rims
Questions to ask before you book
- How to look after the finish
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bolton Low Houses as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Bolton Low Houses, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Bolton Low Houses
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Questions from Bolton Low Houses
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
