About our shower tray repair in Gawthorpe
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We’re often asked to fix chipped corners or rims and a tray that flexes, in acrylic, cast iron and stone resin.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Work done at your home or business
- Fixed prices from your pictures

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
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 or gets worse.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
