Shower tray repair in Eccleston, done in place
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with a cracked shower tray and scuffs and light scratches, we can usually put it right, on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Eccleston and across St Helens.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Eccleston
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Eccleston?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When to call us in Eccleston
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that flexes
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
