Shower tray repair in Claughton, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped corners or rims and movement when you stand on it.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Landlord and trade work in Claughton
For anyone letting property in or around Claughton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.

Advice
Repair or replace in Claughton?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
