Shower tray repair at your home in Padworth
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We are often asked to fix chipped corners or rims and movement when you stand on it, on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.
In a village like Padworth, many shower trays are in cottages and barn conversions, where floors may be timber. A crack is only repaired once we know the tray is firm.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Padworth as everywhere else we work.

When to call us in Padworth
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
The things clients typically mention when they call are:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Rented homes near Aldermaston station (about 1.2 miles north-west) change hands frequently, and repairing shower trays between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray

Landlord and trade work in Padworth
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
FAQs for Padworth
Can you fix shower trays at a school or business in Padworth?
Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. We’ll agree timings that suit the building.
Do you come out to small places like Padworth?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Replacement in Padworth means trades, travel and waste removal, while shower tray repair is one trip.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Same prices wherever you are

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
