How we handle shower tray repair in Dutton
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are damage from a refit or building work and a dull, stained or worn surface.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Dutton
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron

- Enamelled steel
Repairing versus replacing in Dutton
Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

FAQs for Dutton
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
More services for Dutton
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Warrington and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll 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 reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
