DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Shower tray repair in Chilton Moor without replacing anything
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and damage from a refit or building work, we can help.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

FAQs for Chilton Moor
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Common problems we fix in Chilton Moor
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scuffs and light scratches
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
