Shower Tray Repair for Denby Village homes
Problem with your shower tray in Denby Village? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scuffs and light scratches
Can I fix it myself?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Shower tray repair at your home in Denby Village
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that flexes and scratches from cleaning or grit.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Denby Village
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Denby Village?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Denby Village
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
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.
