Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we handle shower tray repair in Clough Dene
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. We’re often asked to fix movement when you stand on it and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, across acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What else we do in Clough Dene
When to call us in Clough Dene
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chipped corners or rims
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Clough Dene. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clough Dene
If you manage property in Clough Dene, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
