Shower tray repair at your home in Netherby
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We are often asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage from a refit or building work, across cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we’re called out for in Netherby
Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A crack across the base
- Chips caused during fitting
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Questions from Netherby
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Netherby. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Repairing versus replacing in Netherby
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
