Shower tray repair in Moreland, done in place
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and chips or cracks by the plughole.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
Do you need shower tray repair in Moreland?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Work for landlords and builders
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.
If you manage property in Moreland, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Moreland
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Do you come to Moreland?
We do. Technicians travel to Moreland from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace in Moreland?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
