Common problems we fix in Gowkthrapple
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A tray that flexes
- Chipped corners or rims
- Cracks running from the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Landlord and trade work in Gowkthrapple
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Repairing versus replacing in Gowkthrapple
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Gowkthrapple questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Gowkthrapple?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gowkthrapple. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
