Your questions about shower tray repair in Childwall
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Childwall?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What we’re called out for in Childwall
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Common reasons people in Childwall contact us include:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Repair or replace in Childwall?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
