About our shower tray repair in Ellesmere Port
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and a tray that flexes.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area

What we’re called out for in Ellesmere Port
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A crack across the base
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Ellesmere Port. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ellesmere Port. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
