About our shower tray repair in Lindley

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include damage around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price 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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Take a look at our full price list.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Lindley

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Landlord and trade work in Lindley

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Lindley questions

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
