How we handle shower tray repair in Dalton
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include scratches in the surface and a tray that flexes, across acrylic, cast iron and ceramic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we’re called out for in Dalton
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips caused during fitting
- A crack across the base
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage around the waste

Dalton: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Dalton?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Dalton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repair or replace in Dalton?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Dalton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Get a moving tray checked
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
