About our shower tray repair in Church Wilne
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. If you’re dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and chipped corners or rims, we can help, on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

What affects the price in Church Wilne
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DE72 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Common questions in Church Wilne
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Do you need shower tray repair in Church Wilne?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that flexes
- Chipped corners or rims
- Staining and dullness across the tray

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- 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, usually until the following day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
