Shower tray repair in Grindleton without replacing anything
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and a damaged area around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What affects the price in Grindleton
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. 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 make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send 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 it’s worth repairing early.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Grindleton
For anyone letting property in or around Grindleton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Grindleton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
