Shower tray repair at your home in Crewe Toll
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We’re often asked to fix chips on the edges and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, across enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Crewe Toll questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover Crewe Toll?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Crewe Toll and the rest of Edinburgh. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Crewe Toll get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Crewe Toll
If you manage property in Crewe Toll, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Repair or replace: which is better?

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
