These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Cracks running from the waste
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

About our shower tray repair in Borwick
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused during fitting and cracks running from the waste.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Borwick and across Lancashire.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Borwick questions
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Borwick
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Borwick, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- 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.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
