Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we handle shower tray repair in Langley Mill
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and edge chips from dropped bottles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Langley Mill as everywhere else we work.

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What affects the price in Langley Mill
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Common problems we fix in Langley Mill
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Langley Mill questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you work in Langley Mill?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Langley Mill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
