About our shower tray repair in Fairburn
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and people most often call us about a cracked shower tray and chips or cracks by the plughole.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fairburn as everywhere else we work.

- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fairburn use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Common questions in Fairburn
How much does shower tray repair cost in Fairburn?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Fairburn. The price depends on:
