Shower tray repair in Helhoughton, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are chips or cracks by the plughole and staining and dullness across the tray.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Helhoughton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Helhoughton
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day, generally the following day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Landlord and trade work in Helhoughton
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Helhoughton. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
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.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
