Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Common questions in New Longton
How much does shower tray repair cost in New Longton?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

About New Longton
New Longton is about 1 mile south-west of Penwortham, in Lancashire. Our technicians come to clients in New Longton, so there is no workshop to go to. New Longton is one of 482 towns and villages in Lancashire where we work. We work right across the region, from New Longton to Liverpool (23 miles away).
All of PR4 is covered. That includes homes on Station Road, Moor Field and Knot Acre. Nearby, we also work in White Stake (1 mile north-east), Hutton (1 mile north-west), New Gate (1 mile east), Howick Cross (1 mile north) and Penwortham (1 mile north-east).

Around New Longton
Typical jobs here are in homes near All Saints Church, Hutton Grammar School and New Longton All Saints CofE Primary School. The nearest railway station is Lostock Hall station, about 2.3 miles east. Nearby you’ll also find British Commercial Vehicle Museum (2.9 miles south-east) and Preston Royal Infirmary (3.6 miles north-east).
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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.
Do you need shower tray repair in New Longton?
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
