Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
About our shower tray repair in Oulton
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Our technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and a crack across the base.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What else we do in Oulton
When to call us in Oulton
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Oulton questions

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Do I have to be there?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
