Shower Tray Repair in Platt
Local shower tray repair for Platt: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches in the surface
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
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.
How we handle shower tray repair in Platt
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. If you are dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chipped corners or rims, we can generally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Are there extra charges for Platt?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
Do you redo the sealant?

Do the materials smell?

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Landlord and trade work in Platt
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Platt as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse away soap after showering
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
