Shower tray repair at your home in Crossens
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Our technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged area around the waste and scratches in the surface.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should you replace it?
A new shower tray normally involves 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. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Crossens
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, normally the following day.
Do you cover the whole of Sefton?
All of Sefton, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Crossens
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Landlord and trade work in Crossens
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crossens as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
