Shower tray repair in Cowley without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new bathroom and scratches from cleaning or grit, across cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- 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, usually until the day after.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Cowley questions
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you work in Cowley?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Cowley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Repairing versus replacing in Cowley
A new shower tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
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.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What else we do in Cowley
Signs you need shower tray repair in Cowley

Common reasons people in Cowley contact us are:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A crack across the base
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
