How we handle shower tray repair in Higher Wheelton
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches from cleaning or grit, across enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Higher Wheelton and across Lancashire.

What affects the price in Higher Wheelton
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Higher Wheelton
If you manage property in Higher Wheelton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Common questions in Higher Wheelton
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
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.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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 natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Higher Wheelton
Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips caused during fitting
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
Before you book anyone
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
