Shower tray repair at your home in Glossop
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are chips or cracks by the plughole and damage from a refit or building work.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Glossop
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish, usually the following day.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Landlord and trade work in Glossop
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Glossop, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
What else we do in Glossop
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes 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.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
