How we handle shower tray repair in Chequerbent
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 edge chips from dropped bottles and a cracked shower tray, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Other services in Chequerbent
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Chequerbent questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Chequerbent included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you need shower tray repair in Chequerbent?
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
