About our shower tray repair in Farley
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Do you need shower tray repair in Farley?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Look out for these signs:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage around the waste
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Farley
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Farley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
FAQs for Farley
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Farley. The price reflects:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
