Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Shower tray repair at your home in Ireby
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We work on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ireby and across Lancashire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
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.
How it works
You don’t 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 a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
What we are called out for in Ireby
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
What your quote should include
- How to look after the finish
- How long it needs to cure
- How the room is protected while they work
- How changes to the job are handled
