Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Lytham, Lancashire
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing for householders, landlords and businesses in Lytham. Send pictures for a free, fixed quote.
- Repairs from £95
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What else we do in Lytham
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common questions in Lytham
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lancashire.
What areas do you cover?
All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lytham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
