Shower tray repair at your home in Bridge Trafford
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with scuffs and light scratches and a cracked shower tray, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

What we are called out for in Bridge Trafford
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Common reasons people in Bridge Trafford contact us include:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Cracks running from the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CH2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
