Shower tray repair in Orton without replacing anything
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. We’re frequently asked to fix movement when you stand on it and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, across stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Orton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Orton: your questions answered
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
The whole UK, including all of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use the extractor fan
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What affects the price in Orton
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
When to call us in Orton
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A crack across the base
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- What preparation is included

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
