Shower tray repair in Hornby without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about cracks running from the waste and a damaged area around the waste.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

FAQs for Hornby
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Hornby?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work in Hornby?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hornby and the rest of Lancashire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What we are called out for in Hornby
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips caused during fitting
Before booking anyone
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
If you’re in Hornby and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
