Shower tray repair in Offerton, done in place
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you are dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and movement when you stand on it, we can usually put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
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.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- We leave the room as we found it

What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
