A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Whether it’s movement when you stand on it and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Common questions in Dobcross
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Dobcross?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OL3 postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Damage from a refit or building work

Landlord and trade work in Dobcross
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Oldham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Dobcross. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Dobcross. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your OL3 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
