Shower tray repair in Methlick, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We are often asked to fix a cracked shower tray and chips on the edges, in cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Methlick
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.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Methlick
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long before I can shower?
Generally the day after. We will confirm before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you work in Methlick?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Methlick from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
