Shower Tray Repair for Cowers Lane homes
Shower tray repair in Cowers Lane without the cost of replacing. Get a fixed price from your photos, then we come to you.
- Repairs from £95
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Movement when you stand on it
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Get a moving tray checked
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
How we handle shower tray repair in Cowers Lane
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and damage around the waste, on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Cowers Lane
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do you work in Cowers Lane?
We do. We send a technician to Cowers Lane for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Cowers Lane. Prices do not change with location.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
When to call us in Cowers Lane
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches in the surface
- A crack across the base
- Damage from a refit or building work
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cowers Lane. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

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 early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why Cowers Lane clients choose us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour mixed on the day to match
