Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We work on cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and a damaged area around the waste.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in Piddletrenthide
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaking waste fittings

Your questions about shower tray repair in Piddletrenthide
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Piddletrenthide, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
