Shower tray repair in Bowlee without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include chips caused during fitting and a damaged area around the waste, across cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Rochdale.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bowlee as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- A year’s guarantee on all work
See our pricing.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Bowlee questions
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Other services in Bowlee
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bowlee. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
If you’re in Bowlee and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
