Repairing versus replacing in Cadishead
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we handle shower tray repair in Cadishead
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and staining and dullness across the tray, we can normally put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Other services in Cadishead
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Questions from Cadishead
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Cadishead

Customers generally contact us about:
- A cracked shower tray
- A damaged area around the waste

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cadishead
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
