How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Do you need shower tray repair in Bury?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
- Chips caused during fitting

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace in Bury?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bury. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Bury: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
