Shower tray repair in Higher Ansty without replacing anything
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips caused during fitting, across enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DT2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use the extractor fan
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Landlord and trade work in Higher Ansty
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Higher Ansty get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Higher Ansty
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Higher Ansty. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Higher Ansty
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How long before I can shower?
Normally the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
