How we handle shower tray repair in Low Bentley
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the edges and chips or cracks by the plughole.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Calderdale.

Repairing versus replacing in Low Bentley
Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

What affects the price in Low Bentley
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Low Bentley. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
