How we handle shower tray repair in Longley
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a crack across the base and scratches from cleaning or grit.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Repair or replace in Longley?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Common questions in Longley
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Longley. Prices don’t change with location.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Common problems we fix in Longley
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scratches in the surface
- A crack across the base
- Chipped corners or rims
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
- Who will actually do the work
- How changes to the job are handled
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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 clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
