How we handle shower tray repair in Clappersgate
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Typical jobs include chips on the edges and damage around the waste, on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Clappersgate
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Clappersgate. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Clappersgate
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Clappersgate included. Travel is included in the price.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Repairing versus replacing in Clappersgate
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
