Shower tray repair at your home in Broughton Cross
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you’re dealing with a damaged area around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can generally put it right, on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Broughton Cross: your questions answered
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
When can I use the shower again?
Generally the next day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One visit for most repairs
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
